Mary Kay continued its support of women’s entrepreneurship, empowerment and thought leadership as a sponsor of the 2022 International Women’s Forum (IWF) Cornerstone Conference. The Conference convened global decision makers who explored the most pressing challenges to progress on gender equality for the Latin American region.
For the first time ever, IWF commissioned groundbreaking research as part of its annual conference programming, funded by Mary Kay. This research was conducted by the Latinobarómetro, and had the title “Latin American Women: Democracy & Society from a Gender Perspective.” It was the first-ever analysis of a quarter of a century (1995-2020) of public opinion and attitudes towards and by women on gender equality issues in 18 Latin American countries.

Deborah Gibbins, Chief Operating Officer at Mary Kay, said, “Now, more than ever, the collection of gender data is crucial to inform advocacy and policy work. I am so pleased for Mary Kay to support this impressive compilation of research. It is our collective and individual responsibility to learn from the experiences of women in Latin America and to use this data to keep pushing the needle to achieve gender equality in the region and around the world.”
