Language: Chinese

The European Chamber CSR Forum and HR Forum are honored to support UN Woman for the online training “Do You Know Gender?” with Liu Bohong, Professor of China Women's University, Former Researcher and Deputy Director of the Women's Studies Institute of China.

Gender equality is one of the Sustainable Development Goals and is central to the achievement of all 17 goals. For companies, promoting gender equality and women’s empowerment is not only a right thing to do, but also a smart thing to do. In 2019, UN Women and the European Union jointly launched the WeEmpower Asia programme in seven Asia countries, including China. One of the components of the programme is to mobilize more companies to sign and implement WEPs, and to play a more important role in promoting gender equality. So far, more than 3,200 companies, including 87 companies from mainland China, have signed the WEPs.
