DPI advances financial inclusion

Across Africa, over 400 million adults lack formal banking services, particularly affecting vulnerable populations like rural women. AfricaNenda is driving change by adopting a Digital Public Infrastructure mindset, and advancing inclusive instant payment systems that are safe, accessible, and equitable. In Rwanda, AfricaNenda worked with the government and RSwitch to enhance the eKash digital payment platform, now serving over 9 million users. By adopting Mojaloop, an open-source digital public good, Rwanda is scaling its payment systems and long-term sustainability. These efforts, built on principles of transparency and sustainability along with the commitment to safeguards, are paving the way for greater financial inclusion across the continent.
