The Center for Financial Inclusion (CFI), which is part of US-based NGO Accion, is seeking organizations to participate in its fourth annual Financial Inclusion Week (FIW), which will be held during the week of October 29. CFI will provide participating organizations with background material and a content outline to host a conversation on the theme of FIW, “Getting Inclusion Right.”
In the context of declining global saving rates and account usage, the goals of FIW include to “bridge the gap between access and usage,” create partnership and leadership opportunities, and “ensure that access to finance brings real value to customers’ lives.” CFI will document the events that comprise FIW on multiple websites and in the form of an e-magazine.
To participate or learn more, you may sign up via the FIW website or contact Tess Johnson at tjohnson[at]accion.org or +1 617 625 7080.
