This is an International Women’s Day special of PIDG Pulse.

At the current pace of change, the World Economic Forum says global gender equity will not be achieved until 2158 - 133 years from now. That’s why this year’s IWD theme is #AccelerateAction.

At PIDG, we make it a priority to empower and include women throughout our work - and have made great strides in achieving this through our Gender Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Action (GEDI) Plan.

In this episode, we highlight three PIDG projects, demonstrating our deliberate approach to gender inclusion and the significant impact it makes on the lives of local people. These projects include:

• Cambodia Water Portfolio
• The East Africa Marine Transport project
• Vivriti Capital’s expansion of the e-mobility industry in India

Learn about the major barriers and biases impacting women in low and middle income countries and in the infrastructure sector - and how PIDG is working to overcome them.
