SUMMARY:Pacific Governance Series: Webinar 4 - Implementation workshop
DESCRIPTION:PACIFIC GOVERNANCE SERIES: Addressing gendered impacts of COVID-19 to create safe and resilient businesses \nBackground: The COVID-19 pandemic is disrupting health and economies across the globe.

The crisis will have a long-term impact on how companies function and conduct their daily operations. Companies that make choices to ensure that women and men have equal opportunities can lay the groundwork for a quicker recovery\, and a more resilient future after the crisis ends. \nAbout the Series: This webinar series addresses the uneven gendered impacts of COVID-19 on the private sector in the Pacific through providing insights from leaders in the Pacific\, presentations from experts\, resources and tools and implementation support. Participation is free and open to all private sector businesses and entities in the Pacific and is tailored for board members\, CEOs and HR professionals. \nWEBINAR 4: Implementation workshop\nThis session will support company leaders to develop and implement policies and procedures that have been\nintroduced in the previous three webinars.

SUMMARY:Pacific Governance Series: Webinar 1 - Board Leadership in any Crisis
DESCRIPTION:PACIFIC GOVERNANCE SERIES: Addressing gendered impacts of COVID-19 to create safe and resilient businesses \nBackground: The COVID-19 pandemic is disrupting health and economies across the globe. While the Pacific has had fewer cases of COVID-19 in comparison to other regions\, Pacific economies are severely affected. Businesses are facing disruptions from supply and demand-side shocks which are compounded by the gendered impacts of COVID-19 on the workforce. Increasing unpaid care responsibilities and gender-based violence are disproportionately affecting female employees and the business bottom line through reduced productivity\, and increased absenteeism and turnover. The crisis will have a long-term impact on how companies function and conduct their daily operations. Companies that make choices to ensure that women and men have equal opportunities can lay the groundwork for a quicker recovery\, and a more resilient future after the crisis ends. \nAbout the Series: This webinar series addresses the uneven gendered impacts of COVID-19 on the private sector in the Pacific through providing insights from leaders in the Pacific\, presentations from experts\, resources and tools and implementation support. Participation is free and open to all private sector businesses and entities in the Pacific and is tailored for board members\, CEOs and HR professionals. \nWEBINAR 1:\nBoard Leadership in any Crisis\nGood corporate governance practices are crucial during crises as it provides companies with tools and mechanisms\nto maintain business continuity\, demonstrate leadership\, and build goodwill and trust within their communities.\nThis webinar will equip company leaders with practical insights and strategies to navigate their way through any\ncrisis. \nAPRIL 2021
