This animation highlights the transformative power of jobs for women around the world. It follows the fictional stories of Maria, Amina, and Anika, showcasing their struggles and triumphs in the workforce.
Maria, a digital marketer, balances career and family while navigating unsafe transportation and lack of childcare. Amina, a smallholder farmer, dreams of expanding her farm but faces challenges due to unreliable internet access. Anika, a tourism entrepreneur, strives to grow her business despite difficulties in securing financing.
Overcoming these barriers can lead to lasting prosperity for women, their families, and communities. The World Bank Group is helping women gain the skills, resources, and opportunities they need to access better jobs, grow their businesses, and drive economic growth. Through this approach, we can reduce poverty and create more stability and opportunity for everyone.
During Spring Meetings 2025, we explore how to energize the creation of more and better jobs to pave the path to prosperity. Join us in celebrating the resilience and potential of women in the workforce.
