This plan, developed in collaboration with AfricInvest, BIO Invest, and Value for Women in January 2023, outlines strategic measures to enhance gender inclusion in accessing financial services, promoting equitable representation of men and women across all organisational levels, and developing products and services tailored to meet the needs of women and men.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur commitment to gender equality extends beyond mere rhetoric. It is embedded in our organizational culture and reflected in tangible initiatives such as our Orange Women\u2019s Network (OWN),\u201d added Mr. Boahen. \u201cOWN serves as a catalyst for women\u2019s professional and personal growth, offering a range of programs and initiatives to empower women within the bank.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Orange Women\u2019s Network provides a platform for women to connect, share experiences, and access capacity-building opportunities through workshops, training programs, and monthly discussions.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, Fidelity Bank priorities work-life balance for all employees, with a particular focus on supporting mothers.
