MOST WOMEN FRIENDLY
EMPLOYER AWARD
CTG is deeply committed to gender equality and women’s empowerment, which is why the 19th Global Women In Leadership (WIL) Economic Forum honoured us with the ‘Most Women Friendly Employer Award’ for SMEs in the MENA region. This recognition aligns with our public commitment to SDG 5 and underscores our efforts to advance gender equality. As part of this commitment, we launched Female First, a recruitment initiative focused on mobilising more women into decent work opportunities within the fragile and conflict-affected countries where we operate.
