The WE EMPOWER-G7 Programme team – with the support of renowned women’s economic empowerment experts across the G7 and the European Union (EU) – launched the Advocacy Tool “Strengthening Support for Women Entrepreneurs in COVID-19 Response and Recovery” on 9 September 2020. The Tool aims to drive support from stakeholders within the women’s entrepreneurship ecosystem amid COVID-19. It features key recommendations for the public sector, private sector, and civil society in supporting women entrepreneurs along five key themes: creating an enabling environment, access to information, skills and knowledge, access to markets, access to networks, and access to finance. We welcome your views, inputs and recommendations as we plan to update the tool with the finalized definition of “women-owned business” in December 2020.
