Global Savings Groups Conference 2018

The SEEP Network is delighted to host the Global Savings Groups Conference 2018, in collaboration with Conference partners. SG2018 will take place in Rwanda, on May 22-24, and will offer a platform for attendees to connect, engage and learn from each other about the challenges and opportunities they face in supporting Savings Groups – including VSLAs, SHGs, indigenous savings groups, and other forms of community-based microfinance – worldwide. In this pursuit, SEEP encourages greater use of a wide range of innovative session structures and methodologies that build on emerging and accepted best practices in learning and the dissemination of innovations. 

Technical Tracks

The conference agenda will be organized around four technical tracks:

1. Systemic Approaches to Increase Scale, Sustainability, and Impact

2. Access to Formal Financial Services

3. Expanding Outreach to More Vulnerable and Diverse Populations

4. Savings Groups and Gender-transformative Initiatives

Request for Proposals 

All SG practitioners are invited to organize a session and provide thought leadership on critical issues that impact work in the sector. Submit a proposal for one of the dynamic peer learning sessions across the four conference tracks by November 10.
