Project Manager (Consultant) for Khadijah WE Finance Code Project
Project Manager (Consultant) for Khadijah WE Finance Code Project
The Islamic Development Bank (IsDB) is a Triple A rated international financial institution with a current membership of 57 countries. Its mission is to promote comprehensive human development, with a focus on the priority areas of alleviating poverty, improving health, promoting education, improving governance, and prospering the people.
The Islamic Development Bank (IsDB) approved its first Women’s Empowerment Policy in February 2019 to guide its investments and strategic engagement in advancing women’s economic empowerment, with a strong emphasis on improving women’s access to finance. The overall goal of the Policy is to “empower women and girls to participate in and benefit from the development of their societies and communities,” recognizing inclusive financial access as a critical enabler of sustainable development.
The Policy’s four strategic pillars—Access, Mainstreaming, Agency, and Learning—integrate financial inclusion, with a specific focus on expanding women’s access to financial services, productive assets, and market opportunities. This includes targeted support for women-owned and women-led MSMEs, development of inclusive financial infrastructure, and promotion of Sharia-compliant financing instruments tailored to the needs of underserved women entrepreneurs.
This positions IsDB strongly to engage in global efforts such as the Women Entrepreneurs Finance Initiative (We-Fi), aligning with its mandate to foster inclusive growth and expand access to finance for women across its Member Countries.
About WE-FI
The Women Entrepreneurs Finance Initiative (We-Fi) is a global partnership launched in 2017 by 14 donor governments to advance women’s economic empowerment. We-Fi works to unlock financing and eliminate systemic barriers that prevent women-led businesses in developing countries from reaching their full potential. The initiative addresses both financial and non-financial constraints including restricted access to finance, markets, skills, and mentoring that continue to limit the growth and success of women entrepreneurs in developing countries.
This collaborative partnership brings together donors from 14 governments (Australia, Canada, China, Denmark, Germany, Japan, the Netherlands, Norway, the Russian Federation, Saudi Arabia, Republic of Korea, the United Arab Emirates, the United Kingdom, and the United States) who have, to date, collectively committed over USD350 million to the Fund. It includes six pre-qualified Multilateral Development Banks: African Development Bank, Asian Development Bank, European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, Inter-American Development Bank, Islamic Development Bank, and the World Bank Group (World Bank and IFC) who serve as implementing partners to which funds are allocated and other stakeholders.
The Fund is managed by a Secretariate that is hosted by the World Bank Group. The WYE Division, under the Resilience and Climate Action (RCA) Department serves as the IsDB focal point for We-Fi, managing all fund engagement on behalf of the IsDB. This encompasses execution, supervision, monitoring, financial management, stakeholder collaboration, reporting, donor engagement, and ensuring alignment with fund objectives and resource efficiency. Country-level implementation is coordinated through the respective regional hubs where the projects are being carried out.
About the Khadijah WE Program
In October 2023 We-Fi established the global initiative the WE Finance Code (WE Code), to address the persistent financing gaps faced by women-led micro, small, and medium enterprises (WMSMEs) to drive sustainable transformation in how women entrepreneurs are perceived, supported, and financed globally. Despite the significant economic contributions of women entrepreneurs, they continue to encounter barriers such as limited access to capital, markets, and networks. These challenges are often exacerbated by a lack of sex-disaggregated data, which hinders the development of targeted financial solutions. The WE Finance Code was established to tackle these systemic issues by promoting transparency, accountability, and collaborative action among financial stakeholders.
The WE Finance Code is a voluntary commitment by financial service providers (FSPs), regulators, development banks, and other financial ecosystem players to increase funding for WMSMEs. Participants in the Code commit to three core principles: Leadership: Appointing a senior executive to champion efforts supporting women-led businesses. Action: Implementing new measures and expanding existing ones to better serve WMSMEs. Data: Collecting and reporting sex-disaggregated data annually to monitor progress and inform strategies.
To support the implementation of the Code We-FI allocated the 5th Call for receiving proposals from implementing partners to implement pilots. The pilots were required to be structured around the three key pillars of the Code: 1. promoting champions who advocate for increased funding for women-led businesses, 2. addressing the critical lack of sex-disaggregated data to ensure the banking and financing institutions have the necessary information to make informed decisions to tailor their services to better meet the needs of WSMEs and 3. supporting the implementation of concrete actions to boost financing for women.
The IsDB led by the WYE team collaborated with the IsDB Institute (IsDBI), Otoritas Jasa Keuangan (OJK) – the Financial Services Authority, Komite Nasional Ekonomi dan Keuangan Syariah (KNEKS) – the National Committee for Shariah Finance Financial Services, and the Asian Development Bank (ADB) to develop the Khadijah WE Code.
The Khadijah Women Entrepreneurs (WE) Program is a groundbreaking initiative inspired by the legacy of Khadijah bint Khuwaylid (RA), a revered woman entrepreneur in Islamic history. Khadijah's pioneering spirit and business acumen, conducted through ethical practices and financial stewardship, serve as a powerful symbol for empowering women in the Islamic finance sector.
The project builds upon Indonesia's existing financial inclusion efforts and leverages the investments and ongoing work of the ADB under the WE DATA program[1], to extend and customize this work for the Islamic finance and banking sector by: further enhancing policy dialogue, capacity-building, and knowledge-sharing in the realm of gender-responsive financial and banking system. The project brings a crucial focus to Sharia finance, ensuring its integration within the broader national financial inclusion strategy. Furthermore, the project aligns with and supports the "Enhancing Women's Financial Inclusion Through Islamic Finance" (IF4W) Program, a joint initiative by IsDB and the IsDB Institute. The program aims to empower women entrepreneurs in Indonesia by enhancing their access to finance and entrepreneurship opportunities within the Islamic finance sector. IF4W Program aims to position Islamic finance as a key driver of financial inclusion for women by promoting gender-sensitive practices, building capacity, and developing tailored products that address barriers to access.
