AGENDA
Day 1: The first day will look broadly at agriculture led economic growth for food security, and discuss the role of financial services. Where are financial services needed at various points in agricultural development? Why can financial service programs do for agriculture led food security? Where are there constraints and what are the opportunities for overcoming them? At what scale? What are the roles for financial services in helping to achieve the agricultural objectives and impacts of Feed the Future?
Beverly McIntyre, and Meaghan Murphy Co-Facilitators.
Day 2: The second day will examine how we can deepen financial services for the poor to extend the reach of agriculture led development and food security. How and in what ways are financial services reaching the poor already? What are additional services needed? What are the models out there and what could facilitate further success? What financials tools should we look towards? What are the innovations and factors for success?
Terry Isert, Microenterprise Facilitator

What will facilitate success? What is needed to make them happen and bring them to scale?
