Women in Business and Management: ACT/EMP aims to provide support to employers' organizations to play a more strategic role in assisting companies at the country level to better respond to the rapidly changing gender roles in economies and societies around the world. To this end ACT/EMP is producing a global report on the current status and trends of women in business and management through surveys, statistical analysis and secondary research. Information gathering through the ACT/EMP, IOE members and ILO networks in the regions will provide key inputs to the report. An international conference will be held in early 2013 to examine the report and identify the way forward for employers' organizations and enterprises.
As part of information gathering for the global report ACT/EMP is organizing a series of regional workshops on
Women in Business and Management during 2012. The workshops also provide a venue to strengthen networking between employer's organizations, businesses and gender experts.
