In an ever-evolving world, gender equity emerges as a moral and economic imperative. The opportunities, talents, and potentials of women need to be unleashed for society to truly thrive. It is with this vision that SoluBio has committed to the SheLeads 2030 Movement, a powerful and ambitious initiative to accelerate the presence of women in senior leadership roles.
The Challenge of Gender Inequality
Undeniable data and studies show that reducing gender inequalities is a smart investment. Increasing women's participation in the workforce, especially in leadership positions, is not just a matter of justice but also a driver of economic growth. According to estimates, closing the gender gap could add an incredible $5.8 trillion to the global economy by 2025, with an increase of up to 3.3% in the Brazilian GDP.
However, the reality is alarming: if nothing is done quickly, we will face a wait of 257 years to address the issue of gender inequality. This is why SoluBio has decided to take a bold and inspiring step by committing to the SheLeads 2030 Movement.
The SheLeads 2030 Movement: Towards Gender Parity in Leadership
The SheLeads 2030 Movement is an initiative led by the Brazil Network of the Global Compact in collaboration with UN Women and other partner institutions. The goal is clear and ambitious: to achieve a 30% presence of women in senior leadership positions by 2025 and aim for a 50% representation by 2030.
This movement underscores the importance of concrete goals and monitoring progress as powerful means to drive companies towards gender equality and equity.
