The Prince's Government, with the support of its partner Babyloan, the leading solidarity loan web site, has launched a challenge to all members of the administration who have a "@gouv.mc" e-mail address, to raise their awareness of its efforts to help the most vulnerable populations.

An information meeting was held on Thursday 19 May 2016 in the presence of the Department of International Cooperation, which initiated the project, and Arnaud Poissonnier, Founding President of Babyloan.  More than forty departments of the Prince's Government had designated a "solidarity challenge" representative to take part in this meeting, thereby demonstrating their interest in social entrepreneurship

From 1 to 30 June, this participatory challenge, in the form of a vote, will enable each civil servant and State employee to choose the micro-entrepreneurs who will be funded by the Department of International Cooperation.
