G20-Women Summit 2017 W20 in Berlin Germany.
\nW20 Communique Final<\/a><\/p>\n

Diverse, Resilient and Viable –
\nStabilising Economies and Societies Through Women’s Empowerment<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The main goal of Women20 (W20) is to promote women\u2019s economic empowerment as an integral part of the G20 process. In a broad dialogue using digital tools, expert meetings and roundtables as well as the W20 Summit, W20 joins the global experiences of women\u2019s civil society organizations and women\u2019s entrepreneur associations to implement strong recommendations within the G20 negotiations.<\/p>\n

Diversity and full participation are essential for fostering the resilient, sustainable and viable growth of stable economies and societies, whereas homogeneous systems bear risks and uncertainties.  Women\u2019s economic empowerment is thus fundamental for a prosperous world and essential for economic growth, stable economies and social development.<\/p>\n

In 2017, W20 will focus on the following four pillars:<\/p>\n

Labour Market Inclusion<\/strong>
\nIncreasing the labour market participation rate and the value of work traditionally done by women<\/p>\n

Financial Inclusion<\/strong>
\nPromoting female entrepreneurship and access to finance for women<\/p>\n

Digital Inclusion<\/strong>
\nClosing the digital gender divide<\/p>\n

Strengthening the W20<\/strong>
\nGender Equality and Women\u2019s Economic Empowerment at the core of G20<\/p>\n

German Chancellor Angela Merkel, together with Queen M\u00e1xima of the Netherlands, UN Secretary General’s Special Advocate for Inclusive Finance for Development and Honorary chair of the G20 Global Partnership for Financial Inclusion; Canadian Minister of Foreign Affairs Chrystia Freeland; Director of the IWF Christine Lagarde; Vice Chairman of the Bank of America Anne Finucane; Kenyan high-tech founder Juliana Rotich; Chairwoman of the Trumpf GmbH Nicola Leibinger-Kamm\u00fcller;  and First Daughter and Advisor to the President Ivanka Trump.<\/p>\n
