Brisbane, Australia Abt Associates Full time

**About the Program**
- Investing in Women: Women In Inclusive Sustainable Economic Recovery (IW) _is a multi-country Australian Government initiative in Southeast Asia that seeks to accelerate women’s economic empowerment through increased and equitable opportunities in the private sector, contributing to inclusive, sustainable economic recovery and growth in targeted countries.

IW’s new phase continues the ambitious agenda of advancing women’s economic empowerment championed by its predecessor program. It builds on the results, partnerships, learnings and credibility established under the first eight years of IW. IW’s new phase will extend and scale Australia’s contribution to supporting women in the region and advancing gender equality through continuing to influence an ecosystem of policymakers, business leaders, capital providers and women’s economic empowerment actors in Southeast Asia.

Positioning women at the centre of economic resilience and recovery and accelerating their economic empowerment is critical to achieving a wide range of objectives pertaining to sustainable development in Southeast Asia. As the region recovers from the COVID-19 pandemic, gender-sensitive economic recovery strategies will be critical to prevent further deterioration in women’s economic empowerment indicators seen during COVID-19. Focus on an inclusive recovery seeks to harness the productivity, skills, capacity, talent, innovation, and leadership that women offer, and realise the benefits of women’s economic empowerment for themselves, their families, and their communities.

IW will run for four years, from January 2023 to 2027, with an option to extend for a further six years. Initial countries of focus will be at least Indonesia, Philippines and Vietnam, with some activities engaging at a regional level.

IW has four mutually reinforcing outcomes for the new phase:

- **Workplace Gender Equality**:

- More businesses adopt and implement workplace gender equality organisational changes
- **Affordable Quality Childcare **- Evidence created to build the case for the importance and value of childcare - to business, the economy and women’s economic empowerment
- **Quality Jobs for Women **- Private sector and government partners progress strategies and initiatives to increase quality jobs for women
- **Impactful Capital**:

- A significant increase in gender lens investing (GLI) in target countries.
