This study highlights the eight building blocks of WEE. Additionally, it presents results from research on corporate-funded WEE programmes.
Main takeaways:
- While there are a lot of corporations investing in WEE, there is little available data about what is working and what is not.
- Most programmes focus on access to education, financial support, training, and employment opportunities rather than a more integrated approach based on a human rights framework that delivers the broader conditions necessary for women to thrive.
- There is an opportunity and desire to increase collaboration and improve communications between the women’s rights sector and corporations working in WEE programmes.
