Within the framework of the mission we started with Kadir Has University in 2022, we prepared the QNB Gender Equality Action Plan and determined our short-term and medium-term commitments. As a result of this mission, we published the QNB Gender Equality Guide.
With this guide, we aim primarily to eliminate the male-focused discourse and unconscious gender bias in business life and to empower women through their participation in the corporate world on more equal terms. The most important motivation for us is that this guide, which we have realized in collaboration with Kadir Has University, will be a reference for women to take their rightful place in the business world and in society in general.
