We are excited to announce that the International Institute of Social Studies and Oikocredit the Netherlands are hosting a conference on Global Financial Inclusion.
During the conference we will try to find an answer to the question if there is a reason to celebrate the progress Oikocredit made in the last 50 years. Should we all be more critical and innovative to provide an answer to the global disruptive developments, such as climate change, geopolitical shifts, and digitalization that impact the lives of all?
We will go into dialogue and reflection with academics and representatives from knowledge centers, governmental organizations, financial institutions, and NGOs. Together we will take stock and evaluate results and challenges in financial inclusion and look into promising initiatives that meet the future needs of people, especially those underserved in low- and middle-income countries.
For more information you can contact Francisca Hubeek, director of Oikocredit (fhubeek@oikocredit.nl) or Femke van der Vliet, events manager at ISS (vdvliet@iss.nl).
