Do DFIs engage with local communities? – an interview with Rayyan Hassan
Our DFI Transparency Initiative has completed its third research Work Stream on ESG and accountability to communities. One of our findings relates to the topic – to what extent do development finance institutions (DFIs) provide assurance that they have undertaken community engagement activities in the areas where they invest, and why does this matter? Rayyan Hassan, Executive Director of the NGO Forum on the Asian Development Bank (ADB)and our CEO, Gary Forster, sat down to discuss the issue.
