About the event
Facebook is making headlines with the launch of Libra, the platform’s new digital currency built on blockchain. Mercy Corps, Kiva, and Women's World Banking are among those who have signed on as founding partners, citing the promise of this new technology to unlock progress toward global financial inclusion initiatives.
So, what is Libra — and what do NGOs need to consider as they think about adopting this new technology? Building on new reporting by Catherine Cheney, Devex will host a conference call exploring what Libra could mean for development programming, the considerations and reservations some organizations had before signing on, and what’s next for the aid sector with this new digital currency.
