Global Insurance penetration remains low especially in African and Asian countries. This is largely because of a lack of awareness, information and proper channels of engagement among the various participants in the insurance industry ecosystem. 

 Harnessing Insurance is one of the key pillars of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In particular the following goals

Goal 1 target 1.5-By 2030,build the resilence of the poor and those in vulnerable situations and reduce their exposure and vulnerability to climate-related extreme events and other economic,social and enviromental shocks and disasters.

Goal 8 target 8.1 aims to strengthen the capacity of domestic financial institutions to encourage and expand access to insurance and financial services for all. 

Insurance Adocacy Foundation helps to bridge these gaps by generating and disseminating knowledge, fostering learning and dialogue in the insurance industry ecosystem. Our strategy focuses on three key interconnected priorities that aim to increase global insurance penetration. 

 

                                                                                                                                                       Our Mission

 To support and strengthen the insurance industry ecosystem by creating awareness, generating knowledge and information that will ultimately increase insurance penetration globally and create sustainable futures. 

 

                                                                                                                        Our Vision
