When Digital Finance Fits Women’s Financial Preferences | WEE-DiFine Webinar (Feb 25, 2026)

Date: 25 February 2026 Format: Online Webinar How should digital financial services be designed to genuinely support women’s economic empowerment? This webinar drew on synthesis-level evidence from across the WEE-DiFine research portfolio, examining why digital finance works most effectively when it aligns with women’s existing financial preferences, liquidity cycles, and financial constraints. Across multiple funded studies, findings show that outcomes improve most consistently when products structure cash flows, match liquidity with periods of need, and support women in managing money for specific purposes. The session featured synthesis findings presented by Elijah Kipchumba, WEE-DiFine Research Fellow, followed by a panel discussion with researchers working on insurance, savings, and wage payment interventions. Speakers: Elijah Kipchumba, WEE-DiFine Synthesis Author Samyuktha Kannan, Wageningen University Achyuta Adhvaryu, University of California Selim Gulesci, Trinity College Dublin
