The Women Deliver 2019 Conference will focus on power, and how it can drive – or hinder – progress and change.

• At the heart of gender equality lies the right to power over one’s self and one’s future.
• At the heart of the calls for structural change lies the need for a more power balanced and equal world.
• At the heart of global movements for progress lies the power of many, the power of people, the power of change.
• Empowerment of girls and women benefits everyone; it can transform lives, change the world and power real, sustainable progress.

The Women Deliver 2019 Conference – through the lens of “Power. Progress. Change.” – will examine power operating at three levels:

• 

  The Individual’s Power

  WD2019 will examine girls’ and women’s individual power, self-esteem and agency. And how to strengthen it.

• 

  Structural Power

  WD2019 will explore and challenge systems, barriers, and opportunities for progress in power relations, including political, economic, and social structures.

• 

  The Power of Movements

  WD2019 will dive into the power of movements, and how we can shape critical consciousness and marshal collective action for change.
