Advocacy

We are the voice of SPM within the microfinance industry. We also bring a social lens to the big debates of the day, such as the impact of commercialisation and growth.
We engage with key stakeholders to bring the focus of microfinance back to its clients, and exploring how SPM can help the industry be more effetive in delivering social value to them.
The Consortium is active in:
Promoting SPM across the industry
Our members participate in workshops and panels at major national, regional and global events to raise the profile of the SPM agenda within the industry. Recent engagements include:
- Global Microcredit Summit Meeting
- MFC Annual General Meeting
- AFMIN Annual General Meeting
- European Microfinance Platform Conference
- SEEP Annual conference
The Social Performance Task Force (SPTF)
As chair of the SPM sub-committee of the SPTF, the Consortium engages with a broad range of organisations to share experience and lessons learned. Consortium members also sit on the SPTF Steering Committee, as well as the Rating and Reporting sub-committees.
