Backround
"WIN-WIN: GENDER EQUALITY IS GOOD BUSINESS" is a joint programme of ILO and UN Women, funded by the European Union. Through the promotion of "business case", this programme seeks to promote gender equality to increase women's economic empowerment and leadership as the basis for sustainable, inclusive, and equitable growth.This activity is held in the framework of the Businesswomen Networking of Latin America and the Caribbean created last year in collaboration with the International Organisation of Employer – IOE.
It aims to expand this Network's outreach to the European businesswomen to recognise the challenges and opportunities they have to continue building and growing their businesses, including during these challenging times of the COVID-19 crisis when all companies' viability has come to a stake.
There will be working groups rooms and the possibility to foster networking through video chats.
The webpage will remain open 30 minutes after the closing remarks so that participants could network through video chat calls.
