Chafikhur Rahman is an educator and writer with a deep interest in economics, rural development, and social empowerment. With years of experience guiding undergraduate students, he has focused his teaching and writing on making complex subjects simple and accessible. His passion for microfinance comes from observing its real impact on ordinary people in villages and small towns, where a small loan or savings group can transform lives.
He believes that education should not only prepare students for exams but also connect them with practical realities. This vision inspired him to write MICROFINANCE: Concepts, Role and Success Stories, a student-friendly resource combining theory, real-life examples, and exam practice. His aim is to help BA students build strong foundations in the subject while also appreciating the social and human dimensions of finance.
Apart from academic writing, he is deeply engaged with community initiatives that promote financial literacy and women’s empowerment. He has interacted with Self-Help Groups, micro-entrepreneurs, and young learners, gaining insights that enrich his work.
Through his books and teaching, Chafikhur Rahman continues to encourage students to see microfinance not only as an academic subject but also as a tool for building a more inclusive society.
