Integrating women's economic empowerment into M4P approaches

Integrating WEE into M4P requires an analysis of the different market functions of women and men in a given economic sector and the factors that affect their respective participation. The results of this analysis subsequently informs decisions made as to what inputs, actions and facilitation by the public, private and civil society sectors are needed to facilitate women’s increased participation within the market systems concerned.

This tool provides guidance on: 

• Understanding gender influences in market systems 
• Incentives with WEE impact
• Defining sustainable WEE outcomes
• Facilitating systemic change that integrates WEE
• Assessing changes in WEE within M4P.
