Are you prepared to cast your votes this Proxy Season? Proxy voting is a critical vehicle with which philanthropists and impact investors can align investment and mission. Asset owners concerned with gender diversity and inclusion have the opportunity to exercise their power and responsibility as shareowners to influence corporate practices through a number of shareholder resolutions.

The following represent some of the gender-related issues coming up for a vote this Proxy Season:

Board Diversity
Workplace Diversity
Gender Pay Gap
Sexual Orientation Bias (LGBT)
Human Trafficking

Join Confluence Philanthropy, Thirty Percent Coalition, Arjuna Capital, and Proxy Impact in conversation with leaders working on board diversity, gender pay gap, and other key issues, to understand how to exercise proxy voting in support of gender equity and inclusion this year.
