ASIA EMPOWER TRADING COMPANY LIMITED

We partner with local organisations in emerging market countries, and other change-makers, to enable marginalised young people to transform their lives and communities.

Aleem Jivraj, COO of Global Markets at Nomura and Co-Chair of EMpower’s Asia Board, explores the transformative impact of collective giving in his new blog, featured on AVPN. Discover his insights on the value of collaboration and the unique role of the philanthropic sector in tackling today’s greatest challenges.

In this month's blog, Swarnlata Mahilkar, Our Senior Programme Officer in India, reflects on her journey and insights from engaging with young people, particularly girls and young women. When it comes to advancing youth centrality and girls' leadership, she explains that shifting the paradigms of power requires a shift in mindsets, too.

EMpower’s President and CEO, Cynthia Steele, recently spoke with Osmin Rivera, Partner and Head of Americas FICC Emerging Markets Trading at Goldman Sachs and EMpower Board Director in the US. They discussed Osmin's upbringing in Honduras, the transformative impact of EMpower's work in Latin America and how his experiences continue to shape his commitment to creating opportunities for young people in marginalised communities.

For 12 years, the Citi e for Education has partnered with EMpower to support nearly 180,000 young people, fostering empowerment through education across emerging markets. We look forward to continuing to build momentum to create lasting, meaningful change in the lives of young people.

Caitlin Mitchell, our Senior Manager, Impact & Partnerships at EMpower, has co-authored an article in Alliance magazine with Aminita Kamara and Jody Myrum: 'Enabling girls to step into their power: Four lessons for funders.'

For more than 23 years, we have worked alongside local organisations and young people to advance innovative programming and best practices to enable youth to live their full potential.

Youth Directly Impacted

Our Adolescent Girls Learning Communities in Mumbai and Delhi—safe spaces where girls can come together and be in the driver’s seat—recently celebrated their 10th anniversary. This toolkit features the voices and expertise of these girls and includes practical and actionable guidance for individuals and organisations planning girl-centred programmes. It includes fresh ideas on how to create and sustain programmes that enable girls to lead, in their own lives and in their communities.
