What do we mean by women's empowerment? What pathways can lead to the empowerment of women in different contexts?

Join London School of Economics Professor of Gender and Development Naila Kabeer as she discusses women's economic empowerment through the lens of livelihoods and capabilities. Naila will then explore the challenge of how we transfer learnings from empowerment activities into an evidence-based theory of change.

Following the event, join us for networking drinks and canapes.
