Ever wondered what life would be like without a bank account? You can’t save. You can’t plan ahead. You can't invest in progress.

Ten minutes. Two changemakers. One sweet solution.

Welcome to the world of millions of cocoa farmers. And millions of women in India – before Chetna Gala Sinha stepped up to create the world’s first rural women’s bank. Like her customers, she heard “no” more times than she could count, but that only helped her build momentum for her cause. ​

Never provide poor solutions to poor people.
— Chetna Gala Sinha

In the new episode of our collaboration with Tony’s Chocolonely, Chetna speaks to host Amelia Høy about her background and the inspiring lessons she has gathered from decades of fervent activism.
