The COVID-19 pandemic was a shock to societies and economies, highlighting dependence on women at home and at work while revealing systemic gender disparities in every sector (McKinsey, 2020 & UN Women, 2021). This situation was heightened in the context of women in the Global South, given the more pronounced segregation of gender roles and entrenchment of patriarchal structures in the region.
The WEI Global Institute (WGI) collaborates with partners, such as the Global Women’s Entrepreneurship Policy Research Network (Global WEP), to engage academics, policy makers, private sector, and key stakeholders. The virtual roundtables aim to identify and address issues & solutions, share lessons, and advocate for changes necessary to advance gender economic equity.
Our inaugural 2022 series is co-sponsored by the WGI and the Global WEP.
