This survey focuses on evaluating the existing digital landscape within Village Savings and Loan Associations (VSLAs). It aims to catalog the current digital tools and practices in use, assess the digital skill levels of VSLA members and staff, and identify any infrastructural challenges, such as limited internet or lack of devices. Additionally, it seeks to understand how VSLA members perceive digitization, particularly noting any gender-specific responses or concerns. The purpose of this survey is to gather nuanced insights that will inform the creation of a digital strategy specifically tailored to the unique contexts and needs of VSLAs, ensuring effective and inclusive digital integration.
