Description
Presented by Women of Water Joint Committee
If the water sector should look like the communities it serves, then nearly 50-percent of the workforce should be women. That number would match the percentage of women in the world's population. What are the barriers to women entering the water sector? And, what happens when women have a stronger voice and role?
This session includes facts and figures and perceptions and stories to delve into the role of women in the water sector.
