From The Guardian:

the Institute for Money, Technology and Financial Inclusion (IMTFI) – Deepti KC and
Mudita Tiwari – found that a tool meant to educate women about the power of a safe
banking channel must appeal to children and their mothers, be respectful, and show
the challenges that female entrepreneurs face when managing their income without access
to convenient financial services.
