In 2015, Chevron was honored to receive the prestigious Catalyst Award, the premier honor for companies committed to expanding opportunities for women.
In 2016, Chevron’s Women’s Network launched the Men Advocating Real Change (MARC) initiative developed by Catalyst, a nonprofit that provides resources to engage men as more active and visible champions for gender inclusion. Participants in MARC are committed to achieving workplace gender equality by improving opportunities for women to compete for roles at all levels. Research by Catalyst shows that when men are actively involved in gender diversity, 96 percent of companies report progress. When they are not, 30 percent show progress. MARC programming helps both men and women break down unconscious bias and other barriers to inclusion. In its third year, MARC exceeds 2,600 participants – 60 percent of which are men – in 10 locations around the world.
In 2019, Chevron announced a $5 million grant to Catalyst in support of expanding the organization’s MARC program. The Chevron grant will directly support the global expansion of MARC leaders, Catalyst’s immersive training program. It will also support the rollout of MARC teams to Catalyst Supporter companies across the globe, creating a grassroots collective approach that helps men apply their influence to affect positive change in the workplace with respect to gender equality.
