We believe finance can be a powerful tool for advancing women’s rights, wellbeing, and gender equity.
Many organizations have some or all of their grantmaking portfolios focused on women’s rights and empowerment yet we don’t know whether their endowments and/or reserve fund investments are aligned with their philanthropic giving or program work. The purpose of this survey is to provide a baseline measurement of the alignment of these organizations’ investments with their missions. We will publish a report with our findings, and coordinate a speaker series to amplify this work in support of the gender lens investing field.
