How do we keep EDI in mind all year and not just for International Women's Day?
Join us for an insightful webcast in partnership with The Manchester Metropolitan University, ‘How do we keep EDI in mind all year and not just for International Women's Day?’ in celebration of International Women’s Day, and its theme: Accelerate Action.
The banking and finance sector has long been characterised by gender disparities, with women historically underrepresented in leadership roles and facing various barriers to career advancement across the corporate pipeline. However, in recent years, there has been a growing recognition of the importance of gender diversity and inclusion within organisations, driven by an understanding of the tangible benefits it brings to businesses, economies, and societies. According to the World Economic Forum, at the current rate of progress it will take until 2158 to achieve full gender parity. As we celebrate International Women's Day, we would like to invite our panel to discuss how we can accelerate the progress of organisations in Equality, Diversity and Inclusion, having this in mind all year round in their corporate agenda, and how we make strides to shift the balance further, with women setting the agenda.
As part of International Women's Day Accelerate Action campaign, this event aims to shed light on how we can improve the progress in advancing gender and all aspects of diversity within the banking and finance sector while highlighting effective initiatives and strategies for empowering women in their professional journeys.
