STRASBOURG CELEBRATION: PWN GLOBAL SUMMIT IN EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT
Women: Peace, Health and wealth
PWN Global *(Professional Women Network), a leading organization, dedicated to fostering balanced leadership between men and women since its creation in Paris 27 years ago, is thrilled to announce its upcoming event, the PWN Global Summit 2024 on 8 March, International Women's Rights Day at the European Parliament in Strasbourg.
Open to members and to the public, the PWN Global Summit 2024 will serve as a focal point for 300 professionals across 25 European cities, eager to engage in vibrant discussions, participate in informative meetings and expand their professional networks.
Distinguished partners and speakers from the public, private and academic sectors will share their insights on the Summit's central theme: Women: Peace, Health, and Wealth.
Peace, because it is the basis for all human rights, and we know that women are the first victims when peace and democracy are under attack. We would like to learn how we can each contribute to be a strong network of women and men united for a safe future in Europe. We have confirmed the participation of Fabienne Keller, European Deputy, European Parliament as well as Leon Laulusa, Dean & Executive President, ESCP Business School.
The theme Health aims to bring together a panel that will look at topics such as work-life balance, physical and mental health at all stages of women's lives, quality of life, parenthood, employment of senior women. Among the speakers on this subject will be Stéphane Nitsasfrom Allianz and Prof.Claire Mounier-Vehier, Co-Founder of the Women’s Cardiovascular Healthcare Foundation.
And finally, Wealth, which is too often a taboo amongst women. It is time we talk about our relation to money, our salary and pension, which is key to independence. Gender-balance governance and engaging men to support women in organizations is crucial. The way women view entrepreneurship is often based on skepticism or even fear; they must take more risk and think big.
This subject will be discussed by representatives of J&J Med Tech EMEA , BCR Banca Comerciala Romänâ and Financi’Elles Federation.
