Carl Hallergård
Ambassador, Permanent Representative,
Delegation of the European Union to the International Organisations in Vienna
Gender equality is a human right, which must ensure the same rights to all. This makes our societies richer, stronger and more secure. Stronger engagement on gender equality is key to a sustainable global partnership in building fairer, more inclusive, and more prosperous world.
I support the IGC Panel Parity Pledge.
I support the IGC gender-based violence pledge.
Personal Commitments
In 2026, I will continue to promote gender equality, diversity, and inclusion as cross-cutting priorities across all its work strands. This commitment is aligned with the EU Gender Equality Strategy 2026–2030.
I will continue to actively participate in the Vienna Gender Champions network, including by defending gender equality in negotiations, as recent developments show that it is increasingly contested in international and multilateral fora.
