Global Forum on Remittances
@IFAD/Edward Echwalu
The Global Forum on Remittances, Investment and Development (GFRID) is a platform to discuss issues and share solutions to maximize the development impacts of remittances.
It also promotes the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration.
Led by IFAD through its Financing Facility for Remittances, GFRID culminates in a biannual summit held on the International Day of Family Remittances. Here, the UN, private and public sector actors, and civil society discuss how to maximize the impact of remittances, reduce transfer costs and enhance coordination. Partners include the African Development Bank, the European Commission and The World Bank.
