As part of the collective work of the Generation Equality Economic Justice and Rights Action Coalition (EJR Action Coalition), the 18 entities leading the work (the Leadership Structure) co-developed blueprints on four prioritized action areas:

  1. Transforming the care economy
  2. Expanding decent work and employment
  3. Increasing women’s access to and control over productive resources
  4. Promoting gender-transformative economies

Each blueprint lays out a rationale, presents important data and statistics, and defines a powerful vision for success, as well as proposed strategies and tactics that are grounded in collaborative action through bold commitments.

The blueprints are meant to serve as guidance and inspiration for commitment makers to the EJR Action Coalition, the other Action Coalitions, and the global community.

By embodying a feminist lens in their creation, these documents have materialized from an intense, co-creation and collaborative process underpinned by the inclusivity of all stakeholder constituencies in the Leadership Structure. They represent diverse voices seen as equals in recognizing the need for shared responsibility to identify and suggest a revitalized global agenda for economic justice and rights that responds to visible and unapparent structural constraints women and girls face in the economic system.

As the five-year cycle of Generation Equality concludes in summer 2026, the EJR Action Coalition will remain embedded in UN Women’s Economic Empowerment Section.
