Empowering girls and women is a key priority for the @unitednations which focused on the issue of economic empowerment in March. In fact, the Sustainable Development Goals call for the achievement of gender equality and the empowerment of all women and girls by 2030. This is the right thing to do; it’s also the smart thing to do. A recent report from the UN Foundation and @bnymellon found that closing gender gaps in access to products and services in just five sectors could unlock $300 billion in incremental annual spending by 2025. #ReturnOnEquality #GenderPayGap #GenderEquity #EqualPay #TuesdayTrivia #SDGs
