The Agile Nation 2 project, delivered by Chwarae Teg and funded through the ESF, has supported 3,498 women and worked with 695 employers so far to promote female career advancement and help reduce the gender pay\-gap.


The project, which will now be extended until 2023, supports women in work to develop their careers by delivering accredited leadership qualifications and mentoring, and supports businesses to implement equality strategies and modern working practices.


Counsel General and Minister for European Transition, Jeremy Miles said:



> “We are proud of our record of investing in skills to improve people’s prospects of career progression and higher earnings, as well as promoting equality of opportunity in the workplace, and we want to continue this work.
> 
> 
> “Last month I launched our own proposals for how we could utilise any replacement regional investment funding, which would focus on reducing inequalities and improving our business productivity.
> 
> 
> “We have a real opportunity to build on work with our partners, and raise prosperity in every part of Wales through ongoing regional investment where funding decisions are made by the Welsh Government, not Westminster. And we must grasp this opportunity with both hands.”


Jane Hutt, Minister with responsibility for equalities, said:



> “I’m delighted these additional funds have been provided to enable the Agile Nation 2 project to continue to help promote gender equality, focusing on nine key parts within the Welsh economy.
> 
> 
> “We're really keen to build on the success of previous projects to help more women into leadership roles, and employers to make the most of women's skills. This week we will launch our own plan to advance gender equality in Wales, which challenges us to show leadership and implement long\-term change. The Welsh Government is determined to meet this challenge.”


Chwarae Teg Chief Executive, Cerys Furlong, said:



> “Chwarae Teg is pleased to be able to continue delivering our ESF funded Agile Nation 2 programme in West Wales and the Valleys. There is no doubt that the programme to date has delivered significant value to the Welsh economy hundreds of businesses supported, and thousands of women, across Wales, who have achieved pay rises totalling over £3 million to date. 
> 
> 
> “The businesses we have worked with have told us that they are now more productive and have improved staff recruitment and retention, and the women that we have worked with have reported increased skills and confidence which has enabled them to progress in their careers. We look forward to working with more women and businesses in West Wales and the Valleys over the next 3 years, enabling women to achieve and prosper in the Welsh economy.”

Mae prosiect Cenedl Hyblyg 2, a ddarperir gan Chwarae Teg ac a ariennir drwy Gronfa Gymdeithasol Ewrop, wedi cynorthwyo 3498 o fenywod ac wedi cydweithio â 695 o gyflogwyr hyd yn hyn, er mwyn hyrwyddo datblygiad gyrfaol menywod a helpu i leihau'r bwlch cyflog rhwng y rhywiau.


Mae'r prosiect, a fydd bellach yn cael ei ymestyn tan 2023, yn cefnogi menywod mewn gwaith i ddatblygu eu gyrfaoedd drwy ddarparu cymwysterau arweinyddiaeth achrededig a mentora, ac y mae’n cefnogi busnesau i weithredu strategaethau cydraddoldeb ac arferion gwaith modern.


Dywedodd y Cwnsler Cyffredinol a'r Gweinidog Pontio Ewropeaidd, Jeremy Miles:



> "Rydym yn falch o'n record o fuddsoddi mewn sgiliau i wella cyfleoedd pobl i symud ymlaen yn eu gyrfa a chael enillion uwch, yn ogystal â hyrwyddo cyfle cyfartal yn y gweithle, ac rydym am barhau â'r gwaith hwn.
> 
> 
> "Y mis diwethaf, lansiais ein cynigion ni ar sut y gallem ddefnyddio unrhyw arian buddsoddi rhanbarthol newydd, a fyddai'n canolbwyntio ar leihau anghydraddoldebau a gwella cynhyrchiant ein busnesau.
> 
> 
> "Mae gennym gyfle gwirioneddol i adeiladu ar waith gyda'n partneriaid, a chynyddu ffyniant ym mhob rhan o Gymru drwy fuddsoddiad rhanbarthol parhaus lle caiff penderfyniadau ariannu eu gwneud gan Lywodraeth Cymru, nid gan Lywodraeth San Steffan. Mae'n rhaid i ni fanteisio ar y cyfle euraidd hwn.”


Dywedodd Jane Hutt, y Gweinidog sy'n gyfrifol am gydraddoldeb:



> "Rwy'n falch iawn bod y cyllid ychwanegol hwn wedi'i ddarparu i alluogi prosiect Cenedl Hyblyg 2 i barhau i helpu i hyrwyddo cydraddoldeb rhwng y rhywiau, gan ganolbwyntio ar naw rhan allweddol o economi Cymru.
> 
> 
> "Rydyn ni'n awyddus iawn i adeiladu ar lwyddiant prosiectau blaenorol i helpu mwy o fenywod i ymgymryd â rolau arwain, a chyflogwyr i fanteisio i'r eithaf ar sgiliau menywod. Yr wythnos hon byddwn yn lansio ein cynllun i hyrwyddo cydraddoldeb rhwng y rhywiau yng Nghymru, sy'n ein herio i ddangos arweinyddiaeth a gweithredu newid hirdymor. Rwy'n falch o ddweud, rydym yn barod amdani."


Dywedodd Prif Weithredwr Chwarae Teg, Cerys Furlong:



> "Mae chwarae teg yn falch o allu parhau i gyflawni ein rhaglen Cenedl Hyblyg 2, sy'n cael ei hariannu gan Gronfa Gymdeithasol Ewrop yng Ngorllewin Cymru a'r Cymoedd. Nid oes amheuaeth bod y rhaglen wedi darparu gwerth sylweddol i economi Cymru hyd yn hyn. Mae cannoedd o fusnesau wedi cael cymorth, a miloedd o fenywod ledled Cymru wedi cael codiadau cyflog gwerth dros £3 miliwn hyd yma.
> 
> 
> "Mae'r busnesau yr ydym wedi cydweithio â nhw hwy wedi dweud wrthym eu bod yn fwy cynhyrchiol erbyn hyn, ac wedi gwella’u prosesau recriwtio a chadw staff. Yn ogystal, mae’r menywod sydd wedi cael ein cymorth wedi nodi eu bod yn meddu ar fwy o sgiliau ac yn fwy hyderus, a bod hynny wedi eu galluogi i symud ymlaen yn eu gyrfa. Rydym yn edrych ymlaen at gydweithio â rhagor o fenywod a busnesau yng ngorllewin Cymru a'r Cymoedd dros y 3 blynedd nesaf, gan alluogi menywod i gyflawni a ffynnu yn economi Cymru."
