UN Women: Survey: "Promoting Women’s Economic Empowerment In A Green Economy"

UN Women is conducting this survey on ‘Promoting Women’s Economic Empowerment in a Green Economy’ in preparation for the United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development, to be held in Rio de Janeiro in June 2012. Deadline for contributions: August 1, 2011.

Through this survey, UN Women aims to: (i) compile experiences, lessons learned, pilots, promising and innovative initiatives on women’s economic empowerment and participation in a green economy; and (ii) collect established and proven methodologies and approaches with substantial and documented impact on women’s economicempowerment in a green economy. The most unique experiences and initiativeswill be published in a report that will be launched in Rio in June 2012.
