Reflecting on this year’s #InternationalWomensDay, it’s crucial to recognize the progress made toward #GenderEquality in East Asia and Pacific. But disparities remain. Let’s continue to #AccelerateEquality and empower every woman to reach her full potential!

🔔 IFC’s Katia Daude Gonçalves joined other #WomensDay partners today @SGXGroup for the #RingtheBell event in Singapore. Capital markets play a vital role in helping to overcome barriers to women's employment and leadership. #IFCGender #GenderBell #IWD2024 #InvestInWomen

Access to finance is a major challenge for many women-owned SMEs across the 🌏. To me, #AccelerateEquality means more women entrepreneurs can access capital. I believe that investing in women, like female entrepreneurs, is an investment in our future. #IWD2024 #InvestInWomen

This year, I am celebrating #WomensDay by advocating for equal pay for equal work. I am proud to be a part of The World Bank Group's push to #AccelerateEquality for a more prosperous and livable world! worldbank.org/womensday #IFC #worldbankgroup #Malaysia
