This edition of faiVLive brought together expert practitioners and researchers to discuss how we should be thinking about the impact of COVID-19 and pandemic control policies on poor households in developing countries, what policy interventions are plausible and possible, what role does microfinance have to play, and what needs to happen to enable the global microfinance industry to be useful now and six months from now.
Featuring Shameran Abed, Greta Bull, Deborah Burand, Neville Crawley, Jonathan Morduch, Stuart Rutherford.
Moderated by Timothy Ogden.
This faiVLive is part of the Household Financial Security Insight Community, supported by the Mastercard Impact fund, and in collaboration with the Mastercard Center for Inclusive Growth.
