__Inside the Deal: Refugee Development Impact Bond, January 24th, 2024, 9:00am - 10:00am ET__

---

Explore the inner workings of real blended finance transactions through Convergence's "Inside the Deal" webinar series. Each quarter, we delve into a successful deal, inviting the deal sponsor and key stakeholders to share candid insights on structuring these intricate transactions.

In our next webinar, we will feature the Refugee Development Impact Bond, which is a first-of-its-kind impact bond delivering vocational, entrepreneurship and employment training to both refugees of the Syria crisis and their host communities in Jordan. The Development Impact Bond (DIB) is implemented by Near East Foundation through a network of community hubs that provide livelihood services. The DIB is uniquely focused on supporting home-based businesses (micro-enterprises) founded and operated by women and youth.

During this hour-long webinar, the KOIS and Near East Foundation team will provide an overview of the bond’s structuring process, fundraising journey and implementation. Convergence will also conduct in-depth interviews with key stakeholders involved in the transaction, uncovering invaluable lessons and sharing learnings from the DIB. The webinar will conclude with an open Q&A session.

*This webinar is open to Convergence members only.*
