Now accepting applicants to the BoardAgender Mentoring Programme
We are pleased to announce the launch of the 4th BoardAgender Mentoring Programme for Aspiring Women Directors. The programme will run from July to December 2024. This flagship programme has been specially designed to groom and advance more women into senior leadership roles and boardrooms in Singapore.
Championing Gender Diversity in Business
HALF OF SINGAPORE’S POPULATION IS FEMALE, AND YET ONLY A SMALL PERCENTAGE OF THE VAST POOL OF SKILLED WOMEN ARE REPRESENTED IN THE SENIOR RANKS OF CORPORATIONS.
We welcome these women, allies and organisations to engage with us, to build more diverse and gender balanced businesses.
BoardAgender is an initiative of the Singapore Council of Women’s Organisations (SCWO) dedicated to advancing more women into senior leadership roles and boardrooms in Singapore.
Our Vision
We envision a Singapore which has high performing boards resulting from diverse representation, including appropriate gender balance.
Our Mission
We aspire to run innovative, impactful programmes towards education and advocacy to facilitate positive change.
