Srishti Bakshi speaks at TEDWomen 2021: What Now? on Decemin Palm Springs, California. Bosnic looks forward to the day that gender-responsive budgeting can be known simply as: “budgeting.” Public money can be fairly allocated, and a gender-based perspective will help countries do right by citizens. She lays out how in three steps: situation analysis, a consideration of who benefits and procedural oversight to ensure that money makes an equitable impact. That just isn’t true, Bosnic says - we must start accounting for gender. But generally, most countries function under the presumption that they serve one universal, homogeneous person, who has equal requirements and needs to access funds. Some countries are already getting it right, like Austria, Canada, Morocco, Indonesia and Bosnia. How? We need a more informed understanding of who receives public money, because there’s currently a massive global gender gap around who gets what, says Maja Bosnic.

Maja Bosnic speaks at TEDWomen 2021: What Now? on Decemin Palm Springs, California. So, what to do? Goddess and Purushothaman share four pathways to reimagine work and center women of color as leaders: get rid of toxic high-performers, (as leaving them in positions of power creates toxic workplaces) treat women of color as your greatest assets (their lived experiences make them natural-born leaders) help each other thrive with intention and banish the “broke-ass chair” (women of color need more than a “seat at the table’ - it’s time to remake the whole table, together). As a result, one in three women report considering leaving the workforce in the next year - which would amount to a staggeringly large loss of talent. What’s more, women of color get hired and promoted less often and are paid less for the same effort.

The results have been startling, highlighting the prevalence of microaggressions, negative stereotypes and the need to demonstrate abilities over and over (and over) again. How? Since 2018, Rha Goddess and Deepa Purushothaman have interviewed thousands of women from all backgrounds about their work experiences. It’s time to reshape those systems and empower women of color to lead.
