FARM-D Blog Features Commentary on Rural Development from MRR Director
On July 4, 2022, the FARM-D blog featured a commentary by MRR Innovation Lab director Michael Carter describes how to shift risk and poverty dynamics for rural families with effective and accessible financial tools to manage risk.
"More than a decade of research shows that it is possible to shift these dynamics with effective and accessible financial tools to manage risk," writes Carter. "The most recent advances have made it possible to take the next step with bundled financial tools that respond to a farming family’s changing needs and circumstances over time, helping them to move up the ladder of both protection and possibility."
