Changing Gender Stereotypyes


In a recently organised panel discussion by the Hertie School of Governance, Berlin & co-hosted by Deutsche Welle on the Success & Challenges for Women at the top in international affairs, we are found here sharing our own story with distinguished women leaders as an example of how visibility and powerful individual stories can play an instrumental role in changing the mindset of our society evidently biased towards the men. The entire discussion can be viewed here http://bit.ly/WIL_video

On the panel are Mr Cyrill Nunn, Director for Human Rights, International Development and Social Affairs at the German Federal Foreign Office, Ms Patricia O’Donovan, Former ILO Assistant Secretary General, Ms Marie Gervais-Vidricaire, Canadian Ambassador to the Federal Republic of Germany and Ms Nina Hall, lecturer at the Hertie School of Governance. This panel, which took place on October 18, 2016, discusses why women are often under-represented in senior leadership and what their institutions are doing to address this situation.

How can we change the mindset contributing more to women's representation in leadership positions
