Can the Impact Movement widen and deepen in Kenya? How is it possible to solve poverty whilst generating investment returns? Galvanized by the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the world is shifting to a new paradigm where impact guides our decisions alongside risk & return. With a youthful population and growing economy, is Kenya prepared for this revolution? What do leading impact investors, impact entrepreneurs and policymakers think?
Join DFID, the United Nations SDG Investment Platform & the GSG, and national and global leaders in this Kenya Impact Dialogue about the critical role Kenya and the African continent is playing with the improved version of capitalism (Capitalism 2.0).
