The business of empowering women

With the belief that combined efforts create a larger, more tangible impact, the Philippine Business Coalition for Women’s Empowerment (PBCWE) was formed and formally launched in March 2017 as the inaugural project of the Philippine Women’s Economic Network (PHILWEN), in partnership with Investing in Women, an initiative of the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT).

PHILWEN is a coalition of six women organizations advocating women’s economic empowerment. The founding members of PHILWEN are Business & Professional Women (BPW) Makati City, Filipina CEOs Circle (FCC), Network for Enterprising Women (NEW), Samahan ng mga Pilipina para sa Reporma at Kaunlaran (Spark) Philippines, Women Corporate Directors (WCD) Philippines, and Women’s Business Council Philippines Inc. (WomenBizPh, as the Lead Convenor).
