We are calling for financiers to take initiative and inform themselves of real-life cases of successful ROIs, adapt their perceptions and application/screening processes, and invest in these areas with reasonable terms for borrowers. To support this shift, we’re planning to develop a sustainable financing training and capacity-building programme, set to roll out in 2025, which will target suppliers in the greatest need of financing, using our playbook as a guide.
