What will women’s empowerment mean for men?
“There’s little correlation between a group’s intelligence and the IQ of its members. But if a group includes more women its collective intelligence rises.”Source: Harvard Business Review (2011)

What will women’s empowerment mean for men?
“For the US to raise female employment levels to male employment levels would raise GDP by 7-9 percentage points; for continental Europe by 9 percentage points; for Japan by 16 percentage points. And for many developing economies the gains would be even bigger than that.”Source: PwC, “The Gender Gap: Challenges, opportunities and the future” (2008)
What will women’s empowerment mean for men?
“Female pathways to greater empowerment include a broader range of factors, largely dependent on the ability to make decision, be free of violence, and participate in social networks. Male pathways are much narrower and dominated by the economy and the existence of and access to jobs.”
