Utahns’ Perceptions of the Challenges Facing Women and Girls
College of Agriculture & Applied Sciences
During the fall of 2023, Utah Women & Leadership Project (UWLP) researchers conducted a statewide study to establish a baseline of public perceptions related to the awareness, understanding, and attitudes around challenges facing Utah women and girls. The 80-question survey provided baseline data needed by leaders of A Bolder Way Forward (BWF) and all Utahns interested in helping ensure that Utah girls and women better thrive. This webinar will highlight many of the results.
The survey focused on the following areas: education (finance, higher education attainment, and K-12 initiatives); community engagement (political representation, boards and commissions, and civic engagement/ advocacy); safety and security (child sexual abuse, domestic violence, poverty and homelessness, sexual assault, and sexual harassment and gender-based discrimination); health and wellbeing (health across the lifespan and home and family); and workplace (childcare/pre-K programs, entrepreneurship, gender pay gap, leadership developm…

College of Agriculture & Applied Sciences
The 2nd Annual A Bolder Way Forward (BWF) Summit focuses on making Utah a place where more girls and women can thrive in any setting (e.g. home, workplace, congregation, and community). This movement, launched in June 2023, focuses on creating societal change in Utah.
Year after year, WalletHub continues to rank Utah last in the nation for women’s equity, and national and statewide studies continue to show that women and girls in Utah are not thriving in critical areas. Although the needle has moved slightly in a few areas, with its current trajectory it will take three or even four decades to make notable progress. It is time for Utah to embrace a BWF, because when we lift Utah girls and women, we lift all Utahns!
For the past year, 18 areas of focus (spokes) have been organized and determined their vision, goals, and metrics. An additional 12 impact team have been created to assist with issues that permeate across and influence each area of focus. A BWF coalitions have also been established in each of Ut…
