How can promising gender data solutions move beyond prototypes to create meaningful change for women’s financial inclusion?

Join the Alliance for Innovative Regulation (AIR) for an interactive webinar exploring lessons, innovations and opportunities emerging from three recent Design Sprints focused on gender-disaggregated data (GDD).

Bringing together winning teams from AIR’s Global Design Sprint and implementation partners from Tanzania and Nigeria, this discussion will explore how innovative approaches can address common challenges, strengthen regulatory decision-making and advance women’s financial inclusion.

The conversation will explore:

  • Connecting solutions: Discover promising approaches to improving access to finance, strengthening gender data systems and translating insights into action.
  • Lessons from the field: Hear experiences from the Global, Tanzania and Nigeria Design Sprints, including opportunities and challenges in advancing solutions toward implementation.
  • Collaboration across markets: Explore how shared learning, partnerships and complementary solutions can help turn promising ideas into practical outcomes.

Introducing AIR’s New GDD Playbook

The webinar will also mark the launch of AIR’s new Gender-Disaggregated Data for Inclusive Regulation Playbook: From Gender Data to Regulatory Action.

Drawing on AIR’s global and country-level engagements, this practical resource brings together established frameworks, tools and lessons to help financial regulators move beyond data collection toward more informed supervision, policymaking and market development.

Attendees will be among the first to learn about this new resource and how it can support efforts to translate gender data into meaningful action.
