- Youth Enterprise Development
- Workforce Development
- Monitoring, Evaluation & Impact Assessment
- Youth-Inclusive Financial Services & Financial Capabilities
- Adolescent Girls & Young Women
You and your organization may submit more than one proposal, but only a maximum of one proposal per track. Each proposal should be for a self-contained session, and Making Cents will identify moderators if necessary. Each proposal must be prepared and submitted separately. Each proposal must also meet the criteria described on this page and in the downloadable document. You will receive an email confirming receipt of each proposal you submit.”
