About Us
Empowering Financial Inclusion Globally
The Global Executive Economic Council for Financial Inclusion was established in New York, initiated by global economic justice and financial inclusion advocates during the 68th annual Commission on the Status of Women (CSW68), the UN’s largest annual gathering on gender equality and women’s empowerment, which took place from March 11 to 22, 2024. Additionally, during the same timeframe, the United Nations Environment Programme Finance Initiative published a framework to implement financial inclusion. This framework aids financial institutions in supporting diverse clients to achieve economic growth.
Our Mission
Our mission is to advance financial equity and knowledge sharing by enhancing accessibility to financial services for the global unbanked population.
Our Vision
Our vision is to guarantee that all individuals who require financial services have access to a diverse range of high-quality financial solutions at affordable rates.
