It is within this context that FAIR SHARE of Women Leaders was founded in 2019, with the FAIR SHARE Monitor as its flagship project. The Monitor makes the data on women in leadership transparent,¹ holds international social impact organisations accountable for their gender gaps and supports advocacy for gender equity in the social impact sector.
With the international discourse around women leadership gaining momentum and a growing number of international organisations actively participating in the FAIR SHARE Monitor, the moment for optimising this data-based tool is now. Indeed, insights from members of our Committed Organisations community, as well as other consultations, made it apparent that for the Monitor to be a powerful and actionable advocacy tool for gender equity, it needs to become more interactive and capture more complex power dynamics in the sector.²
