About

The Gender Benchmark assesses and compares how companies are driving and promoting gender equality and women’s empowerment across their entire value chain, with a focus on Sustainable Development Goal 5.

Our assessment process is highly transparent, and our methodology and results are free and publicly available.

The Gender Benchmark serves as an accountability mechanism for the private sector, driving systemic change towards a world where companies value all people and leave no one behind. We call this much-needed change the ‘social transformation’ – one of seven system transformations we believe are needed to put our worldwide economy and society on track to achieve all of the Sustainable Development Goals.
