Driving climate and gender action together represents a new area of opportunity for financial services providers (FSPs). Yet climate and gender efforts are often siloed within FSP organizations.
This Working Group is designed to enable FSPs to make the most of the synergies between women’s market and climate programs, with a focus on developing new products and services, building the business case, and breaking down internal silos.
The Working Group meets monthly for 1-hour sessions, from February to August 2023. Registration is now closed.
