Why Attend
The WE Finance Code is a new initiative with tremendous potential. To ensure a rapid and successful adoption, it is important that the learning across implementing countries is expedited. The Best Practices shared in the Community of Champions will build off the first country to implement a Code, the United Kingdom, and be complemented with advances made in the first three additional countries to adopt a Code—the Dominican Republic, Indonesia and The Netherlands. As pilots in other countries get started, so their insights will be added to learning content.
