The extended Management Committee of UPLiFT held its annual Assessment Meeting last September 14 at the Ramada Hotel in Binondo, Manila. Targets, strategies, and accomplishments for the year were reviewed and plans were developed for the few months remaining in 2022. The initial plans for 2023 were also discussed during the meeting. Given the fact that the microfinance community is still recovering from the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic, the coming year will be a year of new opportunities and better ways of doing things.
