A financial-inclusion session for women business owners with GIZ, the Iraqi Private Banks League and the Central Bank of Iraq, as part of the “Dinarna” campaign.

This Empower Her session on financial inclusion for women business owners was held with GIZ, the Iraqi Private Banks League and the Central Bank of Iraq, as part of the “Dinarna” (“Our Dinar”) campaign. The campaign was launched by Iraqi finance specialists to encourage using the Iraqi dinar instead of the US dollar in local transactions.

Outcome

Raising awareness of why using the dinar in all local transactions matters: to stabilise the exchange rate and strengthen the national currency.
