Join us for an evening of networking and connecting with new and old friends at the Canadian High Commission in Nairobi. #CAFIIDConnects is our live, in-person networking event where CAFIID members can connect and bring friends of CAFIID to share and collaborate on what's happening in our Canadian Impact Investment ecosystem. This event is illustrative of CAFIID’s desire to promote more Global North-Global South linkages and strengthen its ties with global growth markets. We hope that you, your colleagues and/or your partners can join us for a night of great conversations and meaningful connections at the Canadian High Commission in Nairobi.
During the event, we'll also virtually connect LIVE to our colleagues in Toronto for f a special event: Gender Lens Investing: The Role of Translation. Where WUSC and CAFIID are co-hosting an event to explore approaches to bridge the gap between gender and finance. This topic, coined as ‘translation’ by the Criterion Institute, is essential to closing the analysis gap and allowing for more impactful approaches to gender lens investing (GLI).
