Trillions of Dollars: The Cost of Not Investing in Women | Vantage with Palki Sharma

The global cost of failing to invest in women's education is $10 trillion a year, according to a recent report by the UN. Apart from this, the digital gender gap will cost $500 billion over next five years. No matter the area of improvement, the world continues to misses out on economic gains because we don't invest in women. If more women work, the global GDP will get a $7 trillion boost. Gender equality is a strategic and economic priority. So why don’t governments invest in women?
