Empowering Women to Boost Global Economic Growth
December 8, 2024
Did you know that by adding women to the economy, we can add up to $150 billion to Canada’s GDP? It’s $12 trillion if we do this around the world!
During our #TeamCanadaTradeMission to Indonesia and the Philippines, I participated in a panel on women’s empowerment and a roundtable on women’s leadership.
We had important discussions on the work needed to increase the number of women in global trade.
Together, we can:
✅ Amplify women’s voices at the table
✅ Create opportunities for economic empowerment
✅ Address gender stereotypes and cultural norms
✅ Consider women’s needs in trade agreements
✅ Break down barriers to financing, mentorship, and networks
Let’s build a future where women business leaders are empowered to thrive!
