Apps to achieve economic empowerment

The United Nations’ theme for International Women’s Day in 2024 is “Invest in women: Accelerate progress.” As the UN remains a trusted and reputable source campaigning for human rights across the globe, we’re doing our part to highlight women’s equity through economic empowerment.

Discover apps that inspire women to learn, earn, and invest in themselves, and their communities.

To be economically empowered means to have agency over how you earn, manage, and invest your income. For women in particular, it also includes access to decent work, fair and equal compensation, and participating in economic decision-making. These apps can help you improve financial literacy and support your financial future.

Women and other marginalized groups have historically faced barriers like a lack of education around money management, poor financial literacy, and restricted access to capital. Take steps to oversee your financial future with these apps to set budgets and track spending.

Who benefits when women are economically empowered? The short answer is: Everyone. Economies grow, businesses flourish, and people thrive. Countries that economically empower women can boost the GDP (Gross Domestic Product), and when women earn more, they do more good by investing in themselves, their families, and their communities. Start investing and optimize your portfolio with these apps.

Keep the conversation going and continue your economic empowerment journey: Participate in financial communities focused on education, knowledge-sharing, and encouragement. These apps can help you discover groups related to your particular interests, goals, and location.
