For 20 years, the Rosenzweig Report has shined a light on women’s progress in leadership roles and the systemic barriers that hold women back. Achieving true gender equality is about more than just numbers — it’s about creating a future where every woman has the opportunity to lead, thrive, and contribute. Each of us has a role to play in making this vision a reality.

We must understand that everything is interconnected—people, animals, and the natural world. When we empower women and girls, we empower entire communities to create change, to protect the environment, and to build a future where all living beings can thrive. They are essential to solving the challenges we face, from poverty to climate change, because they hold the capacity and courage to nurture and transform.

The rise of women in leadership is not just about equality—it’s about balance. The divine feminine embodies wisdom, compassion, and interconnectedness. For two decades, Jay Rosenzweig has shined a light on this truth, reminding us that empowering these qualities fosters a more just, peaceful, and thriving world.

The work of women’s equality is far from finished. In order to continue to make progress, we need to understand and acknowledge the scope of our problem. The Rosenzweig report empowers women with the facts, the tools, and context to understand how far we’ve come and how much farther we have to go. For women to truly obtain respect and dignity at work, in their family lives and in our politics, we must never forget the power of knowledge in pursuit of accountability.
