Economy

Women are the most economically-exploited group in society and as such are committed to transforming the economy to a more equitable system. This system must ensure the equal distribution of resources for production and of development benefits.

Our vision of the economy is one which allows:

• equitable access to productive resources and capital

• equitable distribution of wealth generated by the people

• using resources in ways that benefit the whole society and not just a small proportion of the people

• sovereignty in choosing trading partners
