Sharjah - Arab Today

NAMA Women Advancement Establishment, NAMA, and United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women, UN Women, the organisers of the first edition of the Women’s Economic Empowerment Global Summit, WEEGS, set to take place in Sharjah from 4th to 5th December, 2017, have called for interested parties to register for the summit.

The summit will feature leaders and experts on women’s economic empowerment and will put a spotlight on the ways companies, governments, international organisations and civil society can work together to make value chains work for women, enable the full participation of women-owned enterprises in value chains, create decent jobs for women, and provide equal opportunities for women entrepreneurs locally and globally.

The summit provides a platform to share good practices and highlight the achievements of women around the world. Emphasis will be placed on drivers of economic empowerment that have been identified by the UN Secretary-General’s High-Level Panel on Women’s Economic Empowerment, and how the they can make a transformative contribution to achieving the United Nations 2030 Agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals, SDGs.

Held under the patronage of H.H. Sheikha Jawaher bint Mohammed Al Qasimi, Chairperson of NAMA and Wife of His Highness the Ruler of Sharjah, the WEEGS will be held every two years.

Themed ‘Women Excelling in Economy’, this year’s inaugural forum will evaluate methods of creating an enabling global economy for women. It will provide a platform for participants to share best practices, place a focus on defining promising economic opportunities within each sector and highlight the achievements of women around the world.

Speaking on the occasion, Reem BinKaram, Director of NAMA, said, "The two-day Women’s Economic Empowerment Global Summit has been established as a premium forum that will see participation from world’s authorities on women’s empowerment, gender equality advocates, academics, thought leaders from various industries and female entrepreneurs. Discussions at the forum will involve ways to influence global policy that secure the interests of women who want to play a more active role in their economies. This is a seminal event on women’s economic empowerment and we encourage anyone with an interest in advancing the role of women in the economy to register."
