Women empowerment and economic development<\/h2>\n

In recent years, women have made great strides in achieving parity with men in the workforce. Despite this progress, however, gender gaps remain in many sectors worldwide. A recent study found that if women participated in the global economy at the same rate as men, as much as $28 trillion could be added to global GDP by 2025. When women are empowered to participate fully in the economy, they bring unique perspectives and skills to the table that benefit businesses and societies alike.

Women’s rights fuel economic development<\/h2>\n

For several decades, women’s rights have been a focal point of economic development discussions and initiatives. A growing body of evidence shows how empowering women leads to positive outcomes for societies as a whole.

Despite making up more than half of the global population, women continue to be denied their fundamental rights and opportunities, which hampers progress in many areas. Through access to education, health care, employment opportunities, and leadership positions, women are empowered \u2013 they play a pivotal role in driving economic growth and prosperity. This is because when women can fully participate in society, they bring new ideas, perspectives, and innovations that contribute to increased productivity and improved business outcomes. In addition, when women have control over their income and resources, they can better provide for their families.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
