It engages international leaders and gender experts to influence policies and foster partnerships to further women&#8217;s positive impact for a better future for all. DWE aims to contribute to achieving the vision of the UAE\u2019s wise leadership to increase the socio-economic participation of women, and their active contribution to the country\u2019s growth and prosperity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> The partnership with the IMF will spearhead positive dialogue on best practices related to global gender-friendly policies through several high-level interactive workshops and speaking engagements, which aim to further enhance women\u2019s contributions across a variety of sectors and fields. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Her Excellency Mona Ghanem Al Marri, Chairperson of the Board of Directors of DWE, stated: \u201cThis partnership reflects the longstanding commitment of Her Highness Sheikha Manal bint Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, President of the UAE Gender Balance Council, President of Dubai Women Establishment and wife of His Highness Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan, UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Presidential Affairs, to fortify international cooperation with global organisations that offer specialist expertise in advancing women\u2019s causes and socio-economic participation.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> H.E. also stated that the UAE\u2019s unwavering support for women is a testament to the prioritisation of their active socio-economic contribution on a national level, as highlighted in the UAE Vision 2021. It also aims to elevate the representation of women in decision-making positions \u2013 both in the public and private sectors. Events such as GWFD 2020 are essential to develop strategic partnerships of this calibre.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> H.E. added: \u201cWhile several of the United Nations\u2019 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 2030 overlap with objectives of Global Women\u2019s Forum Dubai \u2013 particularly SDG 5 on Gender Equality \u2013 the Forum aims to make significant headway related to SDG 17: Partnership for the Goals. This SDG highlights the necessity of strengthening and revitalising global partnerships for sustainable development. Apart from facilitating the exchange of knowledge and international best practices, these partnerships will highlight the UAE\u2019s successful gender-friendly initiatives, and amplify how it engages women on multiple levels.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> H.E. stated that given the 2020 Forum\u2019s theme of \u2018The Power of Influence\u2019 in areas such as government, economy, society and future, the IMF offers the ideal context and expertise needed to set in motion the progress required for a more inclusive future. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Kristalina Georgieva, Managing Director of the IMF, said: \u201cGender inequality remains widespread across countries and regions. IMF research shows that countries cannot fully prosper without tapping into all its talent. When we share knowledge, best practices and expertise at Global Women\u2019s Forum Dubai 2020, we highlight the important role women can play in transforming entire economies across the globe. Women\u2019s economic empowerment is macro-critical in many countries. It promotes growth, stability, inclusion, economic resilience, and reduces poverty.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> The IMF is an organisation with 189 member countries, working to foster financial stability, facilitate international trade, promote high employment and advance sustainable economic growth around the world. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Forum organised by Dubai Women Establishment to host government officials, business leaders and academics on February 16-17, 2020 Mona Al Marri: The IMF offers the context and expertise needed to boost the progress required for a more inclusive future.
