Women in Politics

The event will focus on the importance of women’s participation in politics and the decision-making processes to build peace and human security & dignity.
Founded in 1919, the GWI (Graduate Women International) has been instrumental to global advocacy for humanitarian issues, including education, equality, human rights, human security & dignity and world peace, collaborating closely with various international organizations also located in or close to Geneva such as United Nations (UA), ILO, WHO, UNCHR, Red Cross, UNESCO. The JAUW (Japanese Association of University Women) is one of the GWI’s 60 national affiliations around the world, and it has been working closely with the GWI since it was founded in 1946. This on-line session will offer precious opportunity to bring the GWI & JAUW together and discuss progress of the ongoing joint projects and future potential opportunities for working together on “Designing Future Society for Our Lives”.
