    Twenty percent of global development organizations have zero female leaders — a significant figure for an industry increasingly focused on gender programming and issues.

    How can global development turn talk into action and what role do investors have to play?

    Devex convened a panel of experts from TheBoardroom Africa and CDC Group to discuss how organizations can create strategies for gender equality — and what investors can do to drive change.

    This one-hour webinar covered:
    • Root causes of gender inequality in leadership and how to spot them.
    • Practical guidance for building a more gender-equal leadership team.
    • Strategies for investors to drive gender equality.

    Guests:
    • Marcia Ashong, co-founder and executive director, TheBoardroom Africa
    • Tamsin Jones, co-founder and executive director, TheBoardroom Africa 
    • Nick O'Donohoe, CEO, CDC Group 

    Moderator: 
    Carine Umuhumuza, associate director for communications, Devex
