This document is the EBRD’s Strategy for the Promotion of Gender Equality 2016-2020. It
mandates the Bank to promote behaviours, through its operations, which contribute to
building equitable and sustainable economies. It aims to increase women’s economic
empowerment and equality of opportunities in the countries where the EBRD invests, as an
important contributor to well-functioning market economies and inclusive societies – a core
component of sustainable and equitable transition. The Strategy articulates the Bank’s view
that gender equality is a principal element in the promotion of sound business management
and critical to the advancement of transition.
