Advancing SDG focused Impact Investing in Emerging Markets

The Canada Forum for Impact Investment and Development (CAFIID) published the 2021 State of the Sector (SotS) Report, which tracked the scale, trends, and outlook for Canadian impact investing in developing and emerging economies. The report provides a snapshot of Canada’s contributions to the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the Paris Agreement on Climate Change through impact investing.

CAFIID is hosting an afternoon hybrid event to provide a forum for reflection on ways to advance the impact investment in emerging and frontier markets. The event will explore how to strengthen Canada’s contribution to the global impact investing ecosystem by providing members with opportunities to learn, share, collaborate, and act as a collective voice.

The interactive session will involve small in-person group discussion. Please choose the theme which most interest you at checkout and we will do our best to add you to that group:
