Digital Savings Group Toolkit - Phase 1

Digital Savings Group Toolkit - Phase 1

Context
On behalf of FAHU, in Q1, 2021, GLOBAL COMMUNITIES conducted a "landscape and feasibility assessment" showing that there is a great demand among actors in the savings group community for information and tools regarding digital savings groups. The assessment also showed an impressive willingness among actors to share learnings, tools, and best practices in order for the community to benefit from them.
Objectives
Building on the positive feedback from the landscape and feasibility assessment, Global Communities will create a vendor neutral Digital Savings Group Toolkit Project (DSG Toolkit), which will have the goal of gathering lessons learned from across the industry to be shared widely across the sector. The DSG Toolkit is envisioned as a living resource that will remain active, relevant, and regularly add new content. The overall goal is to help actors in the community to make the digital transformation successful by learning from successes and failures in the sector.
Project Outcome
The creation of an easy-to-use website to serve as a resource portal with content for organizations considering digital savings groups. This site will include tools for practitioners (learning briefs, howto-guides, videos, and case studies), blogs, and the ability to send automated alerts for users who sign up for them.
