Being gender transformative makes for better business

Gender equality is key to market transformation. 61% of companies we’ve worked with reported that gender-inclusive policies led to increased profits and productivity.

Gender equality, inclusive business environments, and improved working conditions are proven engines of economic growth and value creation for businesses.

We believe the secret to addressing gender inequality is simply getting started. Our three key focus areas to address the root causes of gender inequality are Gender-Based Violence, Gender-Equitable Living Wages and Gender-Transformative Business Models.

Keeping gender equality front of mind

Gender equality cuts across all our Impact Agendas – with a commitment to transforming gender norms and barriers through initiatives to increase women’s access to opportunities, agency in decision-making within markets and households, and control over economic and social resources.
