For over 30 years, our members have served as a testing ground for innovative strategies that promote inclusion, develop resilient markets, and enhance the livelihood potential of the
worlds’ poor. With our members, we support strategies that create opportunities for vulnerable populations, especially women, to participate in markets and improve their quality of
life.
Our Vision
Markets that provide opportunities for all people to engage and prosper
Our Mission
Empower our members to be effective agents of change and enhance their collective ability to accelerate learning and scale impact
How We Work
Through our member network, we engage a diverse spectrum of stakeholders (including development organizations, commercial firms, technology service providers, governments, and
donors) to provide opportunities for cross-organizational dialogue. Ultimately, we convene, catalyze, influence, and expand knowledge to promote new standards of practice, facilitate
collaboration, and support the testing and scaling of new innovations.
