# Participation Tools Workstream
The overall objective of the Participation Tools workstream is to develop a “DFSP Tools” portfolio, with the intention of supporting DFSPs and SIs in the integration of the DFSP’s systems with a Mojaloop Hub. Rather than only offering semi-finalised solutions, the portfolio will comprise the tools to carry out an integration, plus a set of exemplar implementations, each tailored to a specific type of DFSP.
It should be emphasised to all DFSPs that reaping the benefits of an inclusive instant payments solution such as Mojaloop relies on the implementation of a “whole ecosystem” approach - and this means extending the reach of the Mojaloop service into the DFSPs’ domains, giving them and their customers the advantages of assurance of transaction finality, lower cost and the reliable delivery of every valid transaction.
# Business Justification
By making it easier for different types of DFSP to join a Mojaloop-based payments scheme by reducing time, cost and complexity barriers both technically and from a business perspective, it is hoped this will foster faster growing and ultimately larger and more inclusive Mojaloop based schemes, which delivers impact in giving more people access to inclusive instant payments.

# Latest Update (Summary)
The Participation Tools workstream has concentrated on completing integration of the refactored Mojaloop Connection Manager with both IaC Lite and the multi-scheme IaC framework, including integration with the BizOps security and RBAC components. Broader participation tooling has remained stable, with maintenance and security updates continuing while feedback from production deployments of the SDK, Payment Manager and Integration Toolkit is gathered to inform future improvements in usability and developer experience.
