More than just access to financial services, financial inclusion is a powerful tool for addressing today’s social, economic, and environmental challenges. It fosters growth by facilitating access to credit and other financial services that support investment and entrepreneurship. It also creates opportunities for the economic and social integration of populations excluded from financial systems, who are often disproportionately impacted by multidimensional inequalities. Financial inclusion is a key driver for economic and social stability, as well as resilience to major shocks.

This event will bring together experts, practitioners, and decision-makers to explore how financial inclusion can contribute to achieving SDG 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth) and SDG 10 (Reduced Inequalities).
