Our why

Gender diversity on corporate boards:
A road to sustainability

Gender diversity in corporate decision making would lead to a development in economic and social welfare.

In this project, internal corporate governance mechanisms and best practices, common to different cultures within Europe that promote gender diversity will be identified and promoted through adult education modules. Thus, the main aim of the project is to identify the internal corporate governance mechanisms that support “gender diversity and women voice” on corporate boards for different cultures and find the commonalities to promote them across countries.

Since the project partners have diversified cultural and regulatory profiles, the company policies and best practices will have more generalizability globally. Thus, an impactful contribution to the global corporate governance principles is expected.
