This event is organized by the Gender Department of the World Bank Group, the Gates Foundation, and LSE’s Hub for Equal Representation in the Economy.

The event aims to highlight practical tools, real-world insights, and collaborative approaches that advance gender equality, disability inclusion, and broader social inclusion within financial ecosystems.

The 2026 event will bring together financial service providers, policymakers, regulators, funders, and other practitioners from across the world around a shared and urgent question: how do we keep gender on the agenda when funding is tight?

The Gender Data Learning Series is an in-depth course that equips financial service providers with the skills to develop or enhance their women-centered strategies using sex-disaggregated data.

The Summit will include best practice panels, and unparalleled networking opportunities with the world’s leading practitioners serving Women’s Markets.
