‘Decolonizing knowledge starts with a conversation about resources. There can be no conversation until we discuss who has access to resources to produce knowledge, and address the systematic under-resourcing of African knowledge.’ @wanjirukr@SchmidtFutures#PowerOfKnowledge
Knowledge. Who sets the agenda? Who accesses it? Who validates it?
Exploring equitable dynamics between Power & Knowledge here at the #PowerOfKnowledge event hosted by @100KIT@AUB_Lebanon@ethixpert, supported by leaders like @PMGrotenhuis championing feminist foreign policy
Waving at participants online from Lebanon and South Africa. Happy to be here in Amsterdam at @100KIT for the Power of Knowledge event: Walking the Talk on Equitable Partnerships
Excited for this initiative by @CGDev@FinEquityGlobal@Data2X - developing a common approach to
measuring #WEE#FinancialInclusion which I think is hugely useful. Thanks for today’s webinar and to the speakers for sharing these plans and insights 👏
#GCDTalks
Great to connect with #FinancialInclusion experts and businesses like @innovectives Nigeria delivering #gender sensitive financial solutions to underserved female segments. Thanks @BoPInc for this great virtual learning session
Thank you #FinEquity, @myaccessbank Nigeria and all who dialed in for this last week. The energy was great and the audience participation was excellent, which made this a lot of fun and really insightful! Webinar recording to follow...

In response to @100KIT, @myaccessbank highlights that to successfully serve their women clients communication is key. Materials are ‘gender smart’ and span various social media platforms. Clients have two touchpoints for ways they can reach out directly. #FinEquity
Really looking forward this conversation! Join us Tuesday for an action packed 45 min chat with Access Bank, delving into their journey to better understand and serve the #women's market and their 15.4 million female customers

I left DFID 13 years ago after ten good years. Never have I missed it more. Awful way UK Aid cuts being made would never have happened at DFID. Yet it was shut down without discussion, thought or plan. Experts are leaving. Brave souls left seem powerless to prevent catastrophe
UK Government has cut aid to Yemen today, by MORE THAN HALF. In the worst humanitarian disaster in the world, it will take lifesaving aid away from a quarter of a million people on the brink of famine. A famine caused by war. A war enabled by UK arms sales.
Deeply humbled by the overwhelming and historic vote of confidence by AU Member States by voting 51 out 55 to extend my mandate at the helm of the AUC Commission for another 4 years. My congratulations to @mnsanzabaganwa who was elected as deputy Chairperson. Together we WILL.
Just awesome. Loving the work @CGAP and partners are doing on gendered social norms, developing a deeper understanding into the fiercest barrier to women’s financial inclusion by my count.
We are thrilled to announce FinEquity’s upcoming Tools Workshop: "Why does she behave the way she does?" - Using Personas to unpack gendered social norms in financial inclusion. Registration is limited due to the hands-on nature of this workshop. https://t.co/jwD6Yew1tu
Highlights so far in today’s @100KIT Annual Learning Day; seeing 106 of my colleagues (via zoom, of course), launch of KITs new 5 year strategy, and presentation by @100WKS who are connecting direct givers of unconditional cash transfers to low income ppl via mobile money
