UK WEN: Partnership Opportunities

The UK Women in Economics Network (UK WEN) is a key initiative within the work of the RES Women’s Committee.

Since its launch in February 2023, UK WEN has gathered significant pace, creating a ‘movement’ within the profession. We are hugely grateful to the partner organisations that have supported our activities to date. To maintain this momentum and continue to support women in economics, we are seeking ongoing sponsorship from partners.   

Why become a UK WEN partner?

Becoming a UK WEN partner brings highly visible brand association with supporting diversity and gender equality within Economics. This brings many benefits, including:  

  • Being seen as an employer who is committed to furthering diversity, equality and inclusion efforts within the Economics discipline.
  • Enhancing the ability to attract and retain top talent.
  • The opportunity to host senior women economists at an event.
  • Digital brand awareness on the UK WEN web pages, in e-comms, and on social media channels.
  • The opportunity to speak at relevant UK WEN events.
  • Guaranteed in-person places at relevant UK WEN events.
  • The opportunity to contribute and influence event content.
  • The opportunity to network with women economists.
  • The potential to contribute relevant content for the UK WEN newsletter.

  • Bespoke partnership
