1 in every 10 women lives in extreme poverty. If we continue on a business-as-usual path, over 340 million women and girls will still languish in extreme poverty by 2030. #CSW68 #InvestInWomen Let me leave you with a familiar though important message, namely that: with power comes responsibility.   You – particularly the decision-makers – are especially well positioned to use your influence in the next two weeks to drive lasting, impactful and positive change for women and girls worldwide.    I have complete confidence in your unwavering commitment and capabilities.    The #CSW has a proven track record of convening power and of overcoming substantial challenges. https://lnkd.in/eYwVpKyT

Government and its initiatives towards shaping women literacy rate NGOs—a connecting link between community and the government, enabling effective use of resources. Government fundings support NGOs in spreading awareness about education, supporting schools & providing scholarships. This involvement ensures political and social independence to the women, reducing inequality. lt is crucial to break off the cycle of illiteracy & poverty. From 2010-2021, the female literacy rate increased by 14.4% and on a year-on-year basis, it's increasing by 0.6% in 2021. Together it is bringing remarkable changes in women's literacy rates.

📢 New blog! With estimates that more than 342 million women and girls could be living in extreme poverty by 2030, ending gender inequality is not an add-on, but rather a central component of our mission to end global poverty at Results UK. Today, on International Women’s Day, our Advocacy Officers, Mallory Thorpe, Hannah Frisch and Dr Eva Khair, share the impact of gender inequality across their areas of expertise – nutrition, education and child health – and set out the progress that is so critically needed to ensure we can live up to this year’s theme, “invest in women: accelerate progress” not just today, but every day 🌍 🌟 Check it out! ➡ https://lnkd.in/eGnKu8d2

Does your project emphasize better financial inclusion for women and girls? Well, it should! In nearly all surveys, women's financial literacy is measured as being lower than men's - but a little education at the right time can easily close that gap. It's why we created the Closing The Gender Gap Special Category at the MAIAs - to find and celebrate the best work being done to change this. Find out more at buff.ly/3I61eoP.

Do you wonder what you can do to support #iwd2024? Yeah, me too. I reckon one of the best things you can do is to encourage and praise some of the great work that is already being done. 1. Nominate a #FinancialInclusion project you think is helping women close the money gender gap. 2. Tell some women-run #FinancialEducation and #FinancialLiteracy organisations that you think they could win a prize at The Money Awareness and Inclusion Awards. enter.maiawards.org

International Women's Day | March 8th ✨ On this significant day, we respond to the call from UN Women to address how we #InvestInWomen to ensure their access to education. Menstrual poverty stands out as a significant challenge, acting as a barrier for women and girls in attending schools and workplaces. Investing in women involves eliminating these obstacles, paving the way for a world free from bias. This mission is championed by Lasallian Women of Hope, which initially began as a grassroots empowerment project for women. Today, it operates in over 5 countries, delivering creative, effective, and enduring solutions to address educational inequities for girls and women. 💪🌍 https://lnkd.in/dJuQw76m

Happy International Women's Day! The theme proposed by the UN this year is "Investing in Women: Accelerate Progress," a global call to eradicate poverty, invest in essential services for women and drive towards a green economy.
