The two-day Women’s Empowerment Metric for National Statistical Systems (WEMNS) event is the soft launch of a streamlined tool for measuring women’s empowerment, which is suitable for use by national statistical systems in large-scale, multitopic surveys. WEMNS is being developed by the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI), Emory University, Oxford University, and the World Bank’s Living Standards Measurement Study Unit in collaboration with country partners and the 50×2030 Initiative, supported by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and the United States Agency for International Development.

This event will present the WEMNS tool and discuss its use to further advance women’s empowerment.
