The Gender Equality Project is a Swiss Foundation committed to creating a world where women and men are

equally valued and respected in all aspects of economic, political and social life. To close the gap in opportunities

between men and women in the workplace, the Foundation engages corporations across the world in fostering

equal opportunities by making available a self-assessment and benchmarking tool and launching a global

certification system in gender equality, which recognizes companies that have implemented successful policies and

practices for gender equality. By 2015, the Foundation aims to engage 100 of the world’s foremost 1500 companies

in committing to achieving the global standard in gender equality. For more information, visit
