This PPT: how and why to do market research
This one-day workshop will introduce the pathway that financial service providers can take to enhance their social performance management (SPM) practices, using the Universal Standards for Social Performance Management (“Universal Standards”) as a framework for improving practice. Case studies and activities will make the day as interactive as possible. The target audience for this workshop is associations and direct service providers.
The day will start by quickly defining SPM and exploring its importance to an institution’s clients and business. Participants will take a deeper look at the Universal Standards and learn how to use the SPI4 Audit Tool to assess their current level of implementation of the Universal Standards. We will also discuss key resources available to help financial service providers institute changes after they assess themselves.
This course will prepare microfinance practitioners to understand and provide financial and non-financial services to rural and urban youth. The course will introduce participants to best practices for serving youth, help them to understand the differences between rural and urban youth financial service provision, and detail specific products and service delivery models. To ground the information in concrete examples, the training will also involve a live case study component, where participants will be able to engage with representatives of financial institutions in the MENA region that are currently offering financial services to youth.
You have helped your clients see themselves and their families in a new light as economic actors. You can do the same for their lives as civic actors. The nations of the world have agreed to the Sustainable Development Goals, goals such as eradicating extreme poverty, eliminating preventable child deaths, and ensuring all children complete secondary school all by 2030. In this training you will learn how to empower your clients to use their voices as citizens on issues that matter in their lives, the lives of community members, and across their nation. By helping clients influence village leaders and members of Parliament through advocacy, we will make the SDGs real.
