Gender Equality & Empowerment

Women's Leadership & Participation

Promoting full and effective participation of women in decision-making at all levels

Program Overview

Our Gender Equality and Empowerment program is dedicated to promoting the full and effective participation of women in decision-making at all levels. We work to contribute to a society in which the structural barriers to participation of women are eliminated and women's aspirations are captured as equal partners in development.

Our Mission

We believe that gender equality is not just a fundamental human right, but a necessary foundation for a peaceful, prosperous and sustainable world. Through our comprehensive approach, we address the systemic barriers that prevent women from fully participating in economic, social, and political life.
