Register for SEEP’s Conference, Oct. 2-4
The 2017 SEEP Network Annual Conference will bring together leading practitioners, funders, research organizations and private sector actors dedicated to promoting more inclusive and resilient markets and financial systems Oct. 2-4 in Arlington, Va. Under the conference theme Catalyzing Transformative Change, we will deepen our understanding of and commitment to approaches that bring about large-scale positive change.
We will explore insights garnered from behavioral science that enhance impact, strategies that positively address discriminatory social and cultural norms, incentives that help catalyze change in relationships of market actors and engage private sector firms, and transformative new technologies. We will share proven practices and innovative strategies that modify both the structure and dynamics of market systems in ways that contribute to the greater empowerment of vulnerable populations. Likewise, we will also examine the important change processes within programs and organizations that lead to more adaptive management and effective learning.
The conference agenda will feature:
- 25 Peer Learning Sessions in Four Technical Tracks:
- Resilience through Market Systems
- Markets, Food Systems and Nutrition
- Financial Inclusion and Client Empowerment
- Adaptive Management and Organizational Change
- Two Plenary Sessions:
- Six Sessions under the SEEP Fail Fest, designed to experience interacting with failures productively, build a culture of communicating failures in a way that maximizes learning, and generate ideas for applying this learning across member organizations.
- Post-conference Event on Oct. 5:
- Expanding Financial Inclusion in Africa Learning Event: Dissemination of Performance and Results (hosted by Catholic Relief Services and MasterCard Foundation)
We invite you to book your spot and join over 400 global development professionals for an interactive learning experience. Register now!
