empowering women economically is not
only the right thing to do — it’s the smart
thing to do.
The evidence is clear — women’s economic empowerment is critical to
economic growth. One of the best ways to grow economies and achieve
stronger communities is to empower women and improve their economic
opportunities.
Business Partnerships
We partner with the largest, most respected employers in target countries to form member-led business coalitions committed to driving improvements in workplace gender equality.
We partner directly with Impact Investors and ecosystem builders to expand market opportunities for women, with a view to incentivising and catalysing access to capital for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) – led by and responsive to the needs of women.
We help to foster a legal and regulatory environment where women have the same opportunities to succeed in the business world as men, by partnering with governments to remove barriers to women’s economic empowerment.
