iSAW Ecosystem Initiatives
Women10x-Energy
Women10x is led by a coalition of WPC Energy, iSAW and LEWAS (Leadership Excellence Women Awards and Symposium), under the guidance of the WPC DE I Taskforce. It is dedicated to improving the representation and opportunities for women in the global energy sector. Women10x differs from other initiatives in two fundamental ways. It is the first global, gender-focused digital ecosystem that brings together member companies, industry bodies and women’s organizations to share knowledge, ideas, resources, and best practices. And secondly, unlike conventional women’s empowerment initiatives, Women10x seeks to address the systemic barriers, workplace cultures, and systems that hinder women’s progress.

W20
Women20 (W20) is the official advisory group set up by the G20 to advise on steps to the economic empowerment of women and girls. It was founded by the G20 with the long term aim of reducing the gender employment gap by 25 percent by 2025 as agreed in the G20 2014 Summit in Brisbane, Australia, often referred to as the Brisbane Agreement. In October 2015 the first working group meeting was held in Turkey under the G20 Turkish Presidency year. The W20 provides specific recommendations for action, consolidated advocacy and expertise to the G20 Member States.
