Can #Iraq be a tourist hotspot? A country with a rich history, immense culture and many archeological sites can truly be a wonderful place if the security & stability can be secured. https://t.co/UXQ8yujPql (code 62340) #Iraq

So many amazing women on the panel of women economic empowerment. If #Iraq was to create an environment allowing them to fully thrive, imagine where the country would be!

Paid leave for fathers is only available in #Jordan & that’s only for three days. This disproportionately affects women’s participation in the workplace when women have children.

Karokh Abdulla - There needs to be government action to get involved in the green energy sector, it is not enough just for the private sector to initiate. https://t.co/UXQ8yujPql (code 62340) #Iraq

Karokh Abdulla - There is currently no interest to set up solar technology. Some of the NGOs in #Iraq & #Kurdistan but none of these projects are comprehensive & focus more on households. We need to expand this. #Iraq
#PSDIQ #PSDconference2020 #jobscreatefutures #GIZIQ
Karokh Abdulla - investors don’t trust investment in green energy sector. I have installed solar panels & I use it in my house. It can be done to clean our environment & improve it. https://t.co/UXQ8yujPql (code 62340) #Iraq

Hayder Al Bagdadi - it is important that the banks take SME financing seriously if this is to work. #Iraq
#PSDIQ #PSDconference2020 #jobscreatefutures #GIZIQ
Ali Tariq - we have only have one company registered in #Iraq (since 2010) to offer financial assistance to SMEs, but up to now they have not been able to offer the funds directly.

Today day 2 of #PSDIQ GIZ conference..continues the interesting discussions about (How the Iraq private sector can lead the way to successful future)

Al Hassani - Challenges SMEs face is they lack access to finance, lack business skills, lack access to non financial services.
#PSDIQ #PSDconference2020 #jobscreatefutures #GIZIQ
Al Hassani - SMEs can provide 70-80% from total employment in developed countries & this is much needed in #Iraq to develop the private sector. SMEs can contribute to 55% of GDP in high income countries. #PSDIQ #PSDconference2020 #jobscreatefutures #GIZIQ
