Snapshot: Wedu’s 2025–2027 Strategy

From Barriers to Bridges: Transforming Women’s Leadership in Asia

The gender leadership gap won’t close for another 134 years unless we act now. In South and Southeast Asia alone, over 1 billion women face systemic barriers—social, financial, cultural, and structural—that limit their ability to lead. At Wedu, we believe this is unacceptable.

Our 2025–2027 Strategy doubles down on enabling women leaders to thrive despite these obstacles. Grounded in 12+ years of regional experience, we’re focusing on three strategic priority areas:

• Climate Resilience: Enabling women leaders to be resilient in the face of the climate crisis

• Care as Leadership: Shift how society and women leaders think of unpaid care work

• Economic Empowerment: Enabling the economic empowerment of women leaders

We’ll deliver this through our 3C pillars: Capability, Capital, Community while focusing across six high-priority countries: India, Bangladesh, the Philippines, Indonesia, Vietnam, and Thailand.

Wedu’s strength lies in our local leadership, flexible programmes, and community-driven solutions. We’re not just closing gaps—we’re building sustainable and equitable futures. Read our full 2025–2027 Strategy to see how we’re driving intergenerational change.
