The coalition will enable inter-agency and inter-disciplinary coordination and collaboration that defines sustained solutions: create opportunities to challenge the current system that discriminates against women-led MSMEs especially when accessing financial resources and bring together a network of like-minded organisations committed and willing to foster economic justice for women.

The launch brought together women entrepreneurs from the Northern, Uva, Central and Western Provinces from diverse intersecting identities on their experience and views on accessing financial products and services.

There were insights into how financial institutions operate in facilitating financial products and services for MSMEs and the roadblocks in ensuring seamless access to finance.
