"We have to make it clear to folks that they're not just leaving money on the table, they're leaving progress on the table," self-described "actrivist" Rosario Dawson told the World Economic Forum's annual meeting in Davos, Switzerland, this week.

"Listen to them, and nobody will be left behind."

She was speaking on a panel on how to close the $160 trillion women's wealth gap, the New York Times reports.

"With the speed and the scale, if we capitalize women and if we open up their entrepreneurial nature and their possibility, we're going to have an amazing compounding affect around the world," said Melinda French Gates, co-chair of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

The forum featured personal stories, including Elton John's AIDS work and soccer star Megan Rapinoe's activism, and impassioned calls to change the way we approach technology and opportunity.

"We may save the planet but lose the people," said MIA Amor Mottley, prime minister of Barbados and co-chair of the UN's Sustainable Development Goals Advocates group.
