The first day of the conference focused on the need for evidence-based approaches in shaping policies and programs that empower women economically, with speakers emphasizing collaboration between institutions, governments, and development partners in addressing barriers that limit women’s economic opportunities.
On the second day, discussions shifted towards translating research and policy conversations into practical action. Participants engaged in panel discussions, research presentations, and knowledge-sharing sessions on financial inclusion, entrepreneurship, capacity building, and data-driven policymaking as key drivers of sustainable economic empowerment for women.
Stakeholders noted that continued partnerships and investment in innovative initiatives are essential in creating lasting impact and expanding opportunities for women at local, national, and global levels.
