Their contributions are growing our economy and advancing our Nation. But despite these gains, the dreams of too many mothers and daughters continue to be deferred and denied. There is still more work to do and more doors of opportunity to open. When women receive unequal pay or are denied family leave and workplace flexibility, it makes life harder for our mothers and daughters, and it hurts the loved ones they support. These outdated policies and old ways of thinking deprive us of our Nation&#8217;s full talents and potential. That is why this June we held the first-ever White House Summit on Working Families to develop a comprehensive agenda that ensures hard working Americans do not have to choose between being productive employees and responsible family members. We know that when women and girls are free to pursue their own measure of happiness in all aspects of their lives, they strengthen our families, enrich our communities, and better our country. We know that when women succeed, America succeeds.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It is the hope of the founders of W-T-W.org, women and finance, that knowledge and interconnected networks across the world makes a small contribution to women as they step out into the world and take their deserved places.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.w-t-w.org\/en\/women-and-finance-at-the-said-forum-oxford\/we-can-do-it\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-18050\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-18050\" src=\"http:\/\/www.w-t-w.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/We-Can-Do-It-243x300.jpg\" alt=\"We Can Do It!\" width=\"243\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.w-t-w.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/We-Can-Do-It-243x300.jpg 243w, https:\/\/www.w-t-w.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/We-Can-Do-It.jpg 505w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 243px) 100vw, 243px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>August 26th is celebrated as Women&#8217;s Equality Day in the US, \u00a0The not-so-popular President issued a proclamation &#8220;From classrooms to boardrooms, in cities and towns across America, and in the ranks of our Armed Forces, women are succeeding like never &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.w-t-w.org\/en\/womens-equality-day-in-the-us\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":18,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[13,71],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-19053","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-finance","category-inequality"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t<!-- All in One SEO 4.9.10 -
