NextBillion - An Initiative of the William Davidson Institute at the University of Michigan

Women’s World Banking, the World Bank, the Better Than Cash Alliance, and the United Nations Capital Development Fund invite you to join their Call to Action on March 8, International Women’s Day!

Today, 247 million women 15+ are living below the extreme poverty line due to inequality and COVID-19. The Generation Equality vision is to build an equal future for all.

Now is the time to swiftly act on financial equality and drive COVID-19 recovery. They will present 10 key actions for governments, companies and civil society to lead the way, followed by a facilitated discussion with their high-level government and private sector speakers.

During the panel they will discuss the importance of prioritizing digital financial inclusion for women, and what you can do to drive action.
