Dear colleagues,

Please see below a competition on “SDGs & Her” organized by the World Bank
Group, UNWomen, UNDP and Wharton School's Zicklin Center that is addressed
specifically to women who own and/or lead a microenterprise.

Grateful if you could share with your respective networks and motivate
relevant applications – in particular from the business community but also
from grass-root enterprises.

Many thanks in advance and best regards.

Christel

*Dear friends of the International Gender Champions network,*

Pleased kindly find below information on *a Call for Proposals for the SDGs
& Her competition* and on *new OHCHR resources available on child, early
and forced marriage*.

With best regards,

* The IGC Team*



*Call for Proposals for **SDGs&Her competition
<http://www.worldbank.org/en/programs/sdgs-2030-agenda/brief/sdgs-and-her>**,
co-sponsored by the World Bank Group (WBG), Wharton School's Zicklin
Center, UN Women, and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP):*



*SDGs&Her is an on line competition *that raises awareness of the SDGs
within the women's business community by recognizing the efforts of women
entrepreneurs in achieving the SDGs. It collaborates with private sector
partners on all SDGs, particularly SDG5, to share best practices and
innovative ideas.

*The competition is open to women who own and/or lead a microenterprise* –
defined as an enterprise that employs fewer than 10 people, has annual
sales of less than $100,000, and/or has a loan eligibility of less than
$10,000.

Applicants complete a short online template
<https://sdgsandher.awardsplatform.com/> describing their work and linking
their initiative/product to one or more SDGs. Entries will be screened and
then judged by an expert panel, which will select the winners based on the
microenterprise's impact on the SDGs, vision, purpose, and clarity.

The top winners will be recognized at an event at the margins of the 2018
UN General Assembly High-Level Week in New York in September 2018, and
stories about the winning entrepreneur and many other notable entries will
be shared through partners' social media and websites. *The deadline for
applying is June 30, 2018.*

Many thanks in advance for your help in spreading the word about this
global competition that we hope will interest many of your partners.

gathering information on child, early and forced marriage, including in
humanitarian settings, has just been launched. It gathers information on
recent UN events, links to key resolutions, reports, studies, standards,
data, and relevant links.

We will keep it updated and populate it with more and updated information.
Please do not hesitate to alert us of information or documents you consider
relevant.

revenant submissions and supporting documents.
