ASALA, a micro finance institution successfully engaged in empowerment efforts through the provisions of financial and non-financial support to women throughout Palestine, has commissioned this report with the financial support of the Government of Canada provided through the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) and implemented by Oxfam-Quebec. This study aims to explore Women Economic Empowerment (WEE) in the West Bank today, better understand criteria and indicators by which to measure efforts, activities, and progress on the ground, and how to improve and further promote WEE among women through its own projects and program. Consequently, this reports dives into the conceptual understanding of WEE globally and then applies it to the context of the West Bank. Later, the report discusses the agreed definition of WEE and key indicator describing and measuring WEE today. A section on conclusions summarize all findings and extend a number of recommendations to stakeholders, including local and international organizations, donors, private sector, and government institutions, as well as to ASALA as a key actor and practitioner of WEE.
