Currently, it will take 134 years to close the global gender leadership gap– roughly five generations beyond the 2030 Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) target.

In South and Southeast Asia alone, over 1 billion women may not realise their full leadership potential- a massive hindrance to creating a sustainable and fairer future.

We aim to change this by being life-long enablers of women leaders in South and Southeast Asia.

Women's Leadership and the Sustainable Development Goals

Over the past 12 years we have developed a suite of complementary solutions that enable women leaders in South and Southeast Asia to access Social, Financial, Decisional and Dream capital, in order to thrive.

By supporting women in building their skills and capital we are directly addressing Sustainable Development Goals: 3 Good Health and Well-being, 4 Quality Education, 5 Gender Equality, and 8 Decent Work and Economic Growth.

Help us do the work

As a Non-Profit Organisation we rely on funding from diverse sources and allies. Your contribution allows us to continue to provide leadership development opportunities to thousands of women across South and Southeast Asia.
