Women Transforming Food & Finance

Our food and finance systems are broken, designed over decades to be extractive.

• Agriculture and food are responsible for one-third of global green house gases (GHGs)
• Biodiversity, water, and soil resources are being degraded by intensive practices
• Prescriptive conventional agriculture systems are leaving farmers ecologically and economically vulnerable
• The quality and nutritional density of our food has declined and is contributing to health epidemics

AND our financial systems perpetuate these trends.

We need new systems and we need diverse leaders who are equipped to lead through transformation…that’s where women come in.

Compared to their male counterparts…

• Women led companies yield stronger outcomes
• Women investors have better results…

Yet, also in comparison…

• Women are underrepresented in leadership roles
• Women are significantly underfunded
