“DAC members committed USD 190 million to women’s rights organizations and institutions in fragile countries in 2019: less than 1% of aid for gender equality. There’s more to be done...” @williams_katz presenting our latest data in this @wphfund @GlobalSpotlight event 👇@OECDdev

[Vice President Kamala Harris Archived @VP46Archive]

The status of democracy depends fundamentally on the status of women. Not only because the exclusion of women in decision-making is a marker of a flawed democracy, but the participation of women strengthens democracy.

Financing gender equality in fragile contexts: In 2017-18, USD 2.06 billion of bilateral aid (on average per year) was dedicated to gender equality as principal objective of the programme, corresponding to only 4.5% of bilateral aid to fragile contexts. #DevTalk @OECD_SWAC

Very proud lead author of this publication. Thank you to all the women and men from the region who have shared their stories with me. I do hope that this publication can inspire change and lead to enhanced women's economic empowerment in the region and beyond.

[PARIS21 @ContactPARIS21]

Timely publication, which recognises the strides of national statistical agencies in the region to produce & disseminate gender statistics. It is vital to fill gaps in the data needed for measuring #SDG indicators related to women’s economic #empowerment.

#MENAwomen are leading the fight against #COVID19, but discriminatory legal frameworks are keeping them from taking their rightful place in the economy.

How can remaining barriers be removed?

J’exprime ma solidarité fraternelle avec les Libanais après l’explosion qui a fait tant de victimes et de dégâts ce soir à Beyrouth. La France se tient aux côtés du Liban. Toujours. Des secours et moyens français sont en cours d’acheminement sur place.

Very well said!!!

[Moez Doraid @moezunwomen]

Women’s employment & income generation activities are the first & most negatively affected by #COVID19. Women are over-represented in high-risk sectors; they tend to work in less tele-commutable occupations & are more likely to work in the informal economy.

#MENA has made real progress towards #genderequality in 10 yrs. However #COVID19 has brought the region to a crossroads & decisive action is now needed to empower women as engines for the region’s #recovery.

Curious to learn more about gender equality in times of COVID-19 in the MENA region? Check out our latest paper. Proud to have had the chance to work with the stakeholders from the region to make this paper a reality.

[OECDglobal @OECDglobal]

Our🆕#MENA note on gender shows that govts have taken strong measures to support #women during the #COVID19 crisis.

How can these efforts be sustained to foster greater inclusion of gender issues in public policies&advance women's economic empowerment?
