Digital Financial Inclusion in Bangladesh: A Citizen's PerspectiveAnir Chowdhury
The dialog on financial inclusion is currently dominated more by regulatory issues (bank-led vs. telco-led) and supply-side concerns (mobile money vs. other instruments, interoperability) rather than by demand-side considerations (what products do the poor need without thinking of the poor as a black box). That dialog needs to change if the next transformation is to truly benefit the billions of unbanked and under-banked population, and also make money for the financial service providers.

Industrial Revolution 4.0, the world over, is bringing a sea change in digitisation and technological automation. Compared to earlier revolutions, the Fourth is evolving at an exponential rather than a linear pace. Moreover, it is disrupting almost every industry in every country, and the breadth and depth of these changes herald the transformation of entire systems of production, management, and governance.
India is on a mission to completely embrace digitalisation and digitisation to transform the economic, social and administrative prospects of the country. In July 2015, Prime Minister Narendra Modi laid out his ambitious Digital India plan, with the goals of bridging the digital divide in the country, increasing global
competitiveness, fostering innovation and creating jobs. Just 18 months later, we're already seeing the immense impact of digitisation, not only in terms of GDP growth and job creation, but also, in improving the overall quality of life of citizens, and creating better access to jobs and educational opportunities.
The transition from policy to practice has been swift and steadfast. The Central Bank and government are rapidly bringing India’s population into the formal financial ecosystem. While the private sector continues to utilise and accelerate the spread of digitisation, the launch of central government initiatives such as Smart Cities, Digital India and the National Digital Literacy Mission and Broadband Highway, amongst many others, hold tremendous promise in transforming the socio-economic landscape.

Over the past several years, India has embarked on a remarkable journey towards becoming a digitally enabled society. This digital transformation has not only reshaped the nation's socioeconomic landscape but also served as a global model for how technology can be harnessed to uplift and connect diverse and large populations.
At the heart of this transformation lies the concept of Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI), a strategic framework that has provided the rails to propel India onto the global stage as a digital powerhouse.
With the Indian internet economy projected to reach USD 1 trillion by 2030, DPIs are primed to continue playing a significant role in democratizing this growth and ensuring a digital future that is inclusive and expansive.

implementation of highly capital intensive global technologies, infrastructure and processes are vital in order to

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

ABSTRACT
Delivery of financial services to the enriched people is one of the services efforts of the country
which involves socio-economic development. Digital financial inclusion involves the
deployment of the cost-saving digital means to reach currently financially excluded and
underserved populations with a range of formal financial services suited to their needs that are
responsibly delivered at a cost affordable to customers and sustainable for providers. DFI
involves many intermediates intuitions, banks, NGO’s and public. This paper made an attempt
to discuss Digital financial inclusion with respect to PMJDY:
KEY WORDS: Digitalization, financial inclusion, PMJDY, AEPS, micro ATM, Finclusion
1. INTRODUCTION
Financial inclusion is one of the innovations imitative to include the excited people in the
country to avail banking and financial services in an affordable cost. India is one of the best
examples for the successful implementation of financial inculcation in 21th century information
and communication technology is the major reason for this kind of activities which help to
speedy and effective implementation of financial inculcation in the country. Effective
utilization of technology in financial inclusion is called as digital financial inclusion.
Paramasivan C and Ganeshkumar V (2013), they recommended the banking technology has
progressed fast enough and more importantly the realization that the poor is bankable has the
poor can access bank. Various measures which the government of India should implement or
which are under implementations but should be executed in a more effective manner through
micro finance institutions, business facilitators and business correspondents. Our very old post
offices will be an ideal channel to pursue the future long term goals of agency banking
especially in rural India. Technology can act as very important tool in bridging this gap and can
assist in developing a platform in remote areas to widen the financial services. These
sophisticated technologies are opening up the new avenues in providing the banking and
financial services to the unbanked and under banked people of the country.
DIGITAL FINANCIAL INCLUSION
Digital financial inclusion can be defined generally as digital access to and use of formal
financial services by excluded and underserved populations. Such services should be suited to
customers’ needs, and delivered responsibly, at a cost both affordable to customers and
sustainable for providers. There are three key components of any such digital financial services:
a digital transactional platform, retail agents, and the use by customers and agents of a device –
most commonly a mobile phone – to transact via the platform. The banks and financial
establishments need to invest in technology to facilitate delivery of financial products and
services in a transparent, righteous and equitable approach, for inclusive growth of the
economy.

Susantono, (2016) examined that digital economy is rapidly developing all over the world as
they are the huge driver’s of growth, competitiveness and innovation. Even though there are
many people excluded from the opportunities of digital economy for supporting the financial
inclusion for the sustainable economic development. India is creating new conditions in
developing the digital financial services which includes identification of good national system,
efficient settlements system between the service providers of finance, supportive regulatory
environment for different financial services from banks and non banks and government support
for the digital financial inclusion.
Priyanka Tanwar(2017), mentioned that the Digital India drive is a dream project of the
Indian Government to remodel India into a knowledgeable economy and digitally empowered
society, with good governance for citizens by bringing synchronization and co-ordination in
public accountability, digitally connecting and delivering the government programs and
services to mobilize the capability of information technology across government departments. It
is a well-known fact that digital India is the outcome of many innovations and technological
advancements.
Mathew Martin P. J. and Manukonda Rabindranath(2017), found that Even though there is
a lot yet to be done by BFIs in India in increasing web accessibility, some laudable efforts have
been made to use this new medium with global and local reach for financial inclusion. A good
website of BFIs in India, to promote financial inclusion for PWDs, would include all possible
features of accessibility, participation, information, and networking.
Nisha (2018), explained that majority of people in India don’t have access to banking and
financial services and as a result they remain excluded from the horizons of economic
development of the country. The main reason for this is the absence of the proper delivery
model and products which will suit the requirements of the low income group of people. There
is great need of the affordable products by the banks and financial institutions so that people
can use them and help them in mobilizing their savings into profitable investments.
Sheena Das and Marcus A (2019), suggested that financial inclusion has been the initiative of
the government to extend the universal access to banking services with at least one basic bank
account for every household. Technology act as an enabler in the implementation of the
financial inclusion process and various services being provided by various agencies is aimed at
extending banking services to the unbanked populations.
A digital transactional stage enables a customer to use a device to make or receive payments
and transfers and to store value electronically with a bank or nonbank permitted to store
electronic value. Retail agents armed with a digital device connected to communications
infrastructure to convey and receive transaction details enable customers to convert cash into
electronically stored value and to transform stored value back into cash. Depending on
applicable regulation and the arrangement with the principal financial institution, agents may
also perform other functions. Digitalization powers in financial inclusion help to deliver the
financial services to unreached people in an effective manner. It reaches the people in a short
span of period with least effort. Some of the Government schemes are listed below to enable
and successful Digital financial inclusion in the country.
