💪In the past decade, the gender, agribusiness and investment sector in emerging markets has gone beyond 'counting women' to seeing women as key actors in the agricultural value chain ⬇️

Without continued innovation, we wouldn't have the tools, processes, products, services and partnerships that drive gender inclusion in finance today.
And these won't be enough for tomorrow.
What do we need to foster more innovation for gender inclusion in the future?

⚡What are the promising #innovations for gender inclusion?
💫In the last decade, innovations have undeniably helped accelerate the closure of gender gaps in access to resources. This has accelerated outcomes for gender equality.

In the face of these factors, how can we (and you) help catalyze more capital with a #genderlens?
We need to:
↪Dispel the myth that there is only one way to approach #GLI
↪Further standardize definitions and metrics, and add more nuance in measurement to arrive at outcome
Thanks @SwastiHC a lovely reminder on the power of #innovativefinance for tough challenges!
