#WHENsdays at the Hub | The Diplomats
“Global sociopolitical change and its impact on gender equality”: An ambassadors’ panel discussion on diplomacy and gender equality worldwide.
We invite you to a unique discussion as part of WHENsdays, on Wednesday, February 18, 18:00–20:00 at the WHEN Hub, where five female Ambassadors from different continents will come together at the WHEN Hub for a public discussion on global sociopolitical change and its impact on gender equality.
Panel discussion:
- HE Ms Alison Duncan, Australian Ambassador to Greece
- Barbara van Hellemond, Ambassador of the Netherlands to Greece
- Ciara O’Floinn, Ambassador of Ireland
- Harriet E. Berg, Ambassador of Norway to Greece
- Sonya Juanita Thissen, Ambassador of Canada to the Hellenic Republic
The discussion will be moderated by Stella Kasdagli, Co-Founder of WHEN/inc.lude and author
The Ambassadors will share perspectives shaped by diverse regional and political contexts. The discussion will examine how current geopolitical tensions, democratic backsliding, climate instability and rapid technological change are reshaping gender equality priorities worldwide and influencing how gender equity is discussed, defended or sidelined across different settings, including Greece.
Through this event, we aim to connect gender equality with the major political, economic and social challenges of our time, fostering a reflective, comparative and forward-looking dialogue.
Q&A session with the audience will follow the moderated discussion.
*Free creative activities for children will be provided during the event. If you need this service, please let us know via the registration form!
We look forward to seeing you!
