With raising awareness of women equality and non-negligible achievements to the world, the stereotypes of gender images, roles and relations have gradually changed. However, it is still crucial for women to raise their voice to advocate for equal treatment and boost power to make contribution to the society. As the United Nations proposed in the Sustainable Development Goals, “Gender equality is not only a fundamental human right, but a necessary foundation for a peaceful, prosperous and sustainable world."
To better understand women equality situation and female leadership experience especially in working place, the European Chamber CSR Forum is delighted to invite three outstanding female models to share their stories and knowledge on women empowerment and provide constructive suggestions.
