Women are at the heart of Nigeria’s economic growth, yet they continue to face structural barriers that limit their full participation in key sectors. The Women’s Economic Empowerment (WEE) Policy is a transformative initiative designed to break down these barriers, providing women with the resources, skills, and opportunities needed to thrive.
This policy focuses on five key pillars—Agriculture, Entrepreneurship, Traditional Labor Markets, Emerging Industries, and Education & Skills Acquisition—ensuring women have equitable access to economic opportunities. Through strategic interventions, partnerships, and policy reforms, the WEE Policy is driving sustainable change and creating a future where every woman can achieve her full potential.
Explore the video series below to learn more about how the WEE Policy pillars are shaping a more inclusive and prosperous Nigeria.
Pillar 1: Agriculture – Unlocking the Potential of Women Farmers
Pillar 2: Entrepreneurship – Empowering Women-Owned Businesses
Pillar 3: Traditional Labor Market – Advancing Equal Pay and Workplace Rights
Pillar 4: Emerging Industries – Expanding women’s access in high-growth industries
Pillar 5: Education & Skills Acquisition – Building a Knowledge-Driven Economy
The WEE Policy is more than an initiative, it’s a movement toward inclusive economic growth and gender equality. By investing in women, Nigeria is building a stronger, more prosperous future for all.
