Education and skills development, mentorship and networking and financial support are among the key strategic recommendations outlined by FIP to member organisations in a new FIP insight board report launched today, on International Girls in ICT Day.
“Empowering women: Advancing female entrepreneurship in community pharmacy” explores the persistent gender gap in pharmacy ownership, despite the increasing presence of women in the profession. The report identifies cultural, financial, and systemic barriers that hinder women from transitioning into ownership roles and highlights the enablers needed for success—such as business education, community backing, and supportive regulation.
This report, led by the FIP Community Pharmacy Section and developed under the EquityRx programme, sets the foundation for a forthcoming position paper and reinforces the commitment to equity, diversity, and inclusion in community pharmacy.
