0 % Improvement in the lives of women in the project community

Developed by gender and M&E experts, W+ credits are generated using a framework, the W+ Standard, that provides metrics for projects and companies to quantify, verify and generate income for women’s empowerment within projects.
W+ credits unlock much needed funding for improving women’s lives in these communities and are a useful tool for companies to legitimize the ’S’ in their ESG efforts.
