Udaiti Foundation launches CGG

New Delhi, Dec 12 (UNI) The Udaiti Foundation (TUF), a women's economic empowerment organization, unveiled its initiative, “Close the Gender Gap” (CGG) data hub at “Women in India Inc” Summit on Tuesday to drive transformative changes in gender representation and policies within the formal sector.
The CGG platform marks a historic milestone by compiling longitudinal company-wise data from 2,000 companies based on market capitalization, offering an unparalleled perspective on gender representation and policies. The platform sheds light on gender dynamics within private sector orgs.
Larger organisations have more women, but they hit the glass ceiling. Smaller firms however have more women in leadership. When it comes to women’s leadership on boards, there is much ground to cover, 43 percent report one mandatory female Board member, plunging to a mere 11 percent with more than two female BoDs, a statement said.
