MCC Celebrates Women's History Month

MCC is committed to promoting gender equality and social inclusion throughout its work because of the critical role it plays in helping people lift themselves out of poverty. Gender analysis informs all aspects of MCC’s work, starting with its selection of country partners. MCC helps partner governments change policies and laws that prevent women from full and equal participation in the economy while supporting women entrepreneurs, expanding income-generating activities and employment opportunities for women, and increasing women’s access to critical services like healthcare and clean water.

Inclusion & Gender

MCC’s new strategic priority on inclusion and gender will expand the ability of excluded groups to access, participate in, and derive benefits from MCC programs.
Gender and Social Inclusion

MCC recognizes that gender and social inequality are significant constraints to economic growth and poverty reduction.
