International Women’s Day 2020

To mark this year’s International Women’s Day, MD of LADOL and Board Member of Endeavour Nigeria, Dr. Amy Jadesimi said:

“Equality isn’t a women’s issue, it’s an economic issue- in every sphere of life:

Gender parity at work will increase global GDP by USD 28 trillion (26%);

Start-ups with a female founder outperform all-male teams by 63%

• Low female employment reduces GDP by 15%

Across the world we need structural changes in healthcare, education, employment, politics and at home, that will lead to gender equality, enabling global wealth and harmony.

Companies and governments that invest in achieving SDG 5 – will be the leading organizations and countries of the future.”
