About the book

‘A compelling and actionable case for unleashing women’s economic power’
Melinda Gates

An urgent analysis of global gender inequality and a passionately argued case for change by a pioneer in the movement for women’s economic empowerment.

The Double X Economy describes both the shocking gender inequalities built into the global economy, and the collective power of women that could be harnessed to turn these around and combat humankind’s most pressing problems.
Promoting women’s economic empowerment will dramatically boost social, financial and environmental conditions for everybody around the world.

Provocative, accessible and game-changing, The Double X Economy is at once an expert analysis and an urgent call to action.
