Less than 2% of the $630 billion in climate investments between 2019 and 2020 supported enterprises led by or benefiting women. Women in emerging markets and developing economies not only face the harshest impacts of climate change but also lead the charge in creating solutions.
In this dynamic fireside chat, two experienced climate investors will share insights from their work supporting female-led businesses in high-impact sectors like tech, agribusiness, renewable energy, and manufacturing. Together, these women will share their experiences and insights into the challenges women-led climate solutions face in raising capital and opportunities to invest at the nexus of climate and gender to achieve maximum impact. Discover the challenges and opportunities in funding women-led climate solutions and learn about new investment partnership opportunities like the USAID Climate Gender Equity Fund.
