Picturing Power & Potential:
A Project of Economica
Picturing Power & Potential, the first in a series of special projects of Economica, is now open online at IMOW.org and in a physical exhibition at San Francisco City Hall.

Economica: Women and the Global Economy
IMOW's global online exhibition Economica: Women and the Global Economy addresses issues encompassing two prominent cross-currents affecting women around the world today. On the one hand, women are the majority of the world's poor and exploited. On the other hand, women form an increasing percentage of the world's entrepreneurs, business leaders, shoppers and philanthropists. Economica illuminates the range of ways that women interact with money--as earners, consumers, caretakers and decision makers in households, board rooms, halls of government and international financial institutions.
