TOOLKIT for Gender Lens Investing

Whether you are part of a foundation working to end domestic poverty,  a women’s rights organization promoting gender equality in government policy, a not for profit building sustainable housing in Asia, a donor agency who wants to invest in people who can better translate and bridge between gender and finance, or an impact investor who want to incorporate gender analysis, our TOOLKIT for gender lens investing workshop is designed to help you tackle your sticky problems in a safe space while simultaneously learning about and experimenting with ways you might use the systems of finance as a tool for social change.Throughout the TOOLKIT workshop we use a series of reframes to aid you in seeing the leverage points within finance you may already have.  Through the clear outlining of the relationships and structures of finance, participants identify areas how they might use to move your particular issue forward. And lastly by taking a deep dive into how and why financial systems are regulated, they find a better strategy of how and when to use these rule sets and processes to their advantage.

Regardless of their starting place or experience level with the language and systems of finance, hundreds of people have found that TOOLKIT is the much needed bridge between those that speak finance and those who don’t.
