Join us tomorrow at 10 AM (DC) / 4 PM (Italy) / 8:30 PM (India) for the SMDP Webinar featuring Vulnerability: The State of the Microcredit Summit Campaign Report, 2013.
Guest host Larry R. Reed will be joined by panelists Chandra Shekhar Ghosh (Chairman and Managing Director, Bandhan, India) and Luisa Brunori (Full Professor, Department of Psychology, University of Bologna, Italy).
This webinar will open with news from a recently released report for the Microcredit Summit Campaign, Vulnerability: The State of the Microcredit Summit Campaign Report, 2013, that microfinance providers reached 13 million fewer poorest clients in 2011 than in 2010. This decline was almost exclusively in India as a result of the 2010 crisis in Andhra Pradesh. Our panelists, CS Ghosh of Bandhan (India) and Professor Brunori from the University of Bologna (Italy), will look at that crisis from the client's perspective. Why didn't clients complain when the Andhra Pradesh government took such draconian actions against the microfinance industry? What was missing in the MFI-client relationship?
Other issues to be discussed include:
· The psychology of the group
· How microfinance groups help people deal with vulnerability
· How mobile technology can be part of the process that helps clients reduce vulnerability and/or increase resilience
This will be an interactive session with multiple opportunities for the audience to weigh in on the issues being discussed.
