It gives me a great pleasure and honor to launch the BPW International Projects Booklet that includes BPW affiliates projects showing the contribution of the BPW affiliates to the Global Agenda of the World of the Sustainable Development Goals.

Economic Empowerment of Women is key to realize the Sustainable Development Goals it is crucial to focus on the Economic growth and the Economic Empowerment of women and youth to achieve this agenda based on Social and Economic Justice. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) where the core of the whole SDGs is about ending poverty, ensuring food security, healthy lives for all, educating all women and girls and promoting STEM Education, ensuring gender equality and women empowerment, access to sanitation and affordable energy, securing employment and descent work for the youth, access to justice, achieving economic growth and sustainable development. All this cannot be achieved except with economic growth that has an impact on the daily life of people, where investment in Human resources including women and youth is the core for real social and economic development to have access to Education and health care and achieve a quality of life. All our Affiliates across the globe are working very hard and achieving great results for advocacy to have better laws and legislation for women.

Since many years, BPW Europe is managing an important project about the equal pay for equal work, a pillar on the decent work matter, involving all Federations and Clubs.

The EPD Campaign, started in the year 2008, has the aim to reduce the gender pay gap and to call the attention of the Institutions.

Before no one spoke about this problem; now the movement of opinion there is and it is strong.

The campaign on Equal Pay day had and has the merit to increase the awareness on this issue and many countries are approving appropriate laws and is considered as a success, the law entered into force in Iceland and France, the first countries in the world to apply seriously the equal pay for equal work.

BPW Europe achieved another important result: now the equal salary for equal work is one of the seventeen sustainable development goals, on the Agenda 2030.

Equal Pay: BPW Canada, BPW Germany, BPW France, BPW
