About the Women-Friendly Brands Platform

The Women-Friendly Brands Platform is an independent digital platform that works to raise awareness of gender equality and strengthen women's roles in work, education, and social life. We believe that a sustainable society is only possible through the rights and freedoms granted to women. For this purpose, we combat inequalities, promote equal opportunities, and bring together brands that support women's stronger participation in social and economic life.

Our platform carries out value-oriented projects on topics such as women's employment, equal opportunities, entrepreneurship, and sustainable development. By sharing these and similar projects with all segments of society, we aim to create awareness.
