Understanding and Measuring Women's Economic Empowerment

This document addresses key questions essential to design meaningful strategies that will lead to women’s economic empowerment. It presents: 1. A definition of women’s economic empowerment; 2. A measurement framework that can guide the design, implementation and evaluation of programs to economically empower women; and 3. A set of illustrative indicators that can serve as concrete examples for developing meaningful metrics for success. The concepts presented are meant to help practitioners, researchers and donors design effective, measurable interventions to advance women economically. In developing these concepts, ICRW has drawn both on the available literature and on ICRW’s direct experience in evaluating women’s economic empowerment programs. This document is intended as a conceptual guide, rather than an operational tool kit. Economic empowerment is a complex process, and the general framework presented here will have to be adapted to meet the needs of specific projects.
