RISE is hosting an on-demand session during Financial Inclusion Week. Watch it directly on the event's website. 

Extreme weather events are increasingly disrupting workers and businesses in global supply chains. For workers, climate shocks lead to rising food prices, lost earnings, and mounting healthcare costs that drain savings or increase debt. For businesses, this translates to higher absenteeism, declining productivity, and increased staff turnover -- all hurting profits. This session shares findings from RISE's latest research on how climate change impacts the financial health of garment and footwear workers. We'll explore how digital financial inclusion can help workers manage financial shocks and build resilience while delivering business benefits throughout global supply chains. Join us for practical solutions that support both workers and businesses.
