Eglantina Gjermeni

I believe that gender equality and women empowerment are key for a democratic, inclusive and sustainable society. I am pleased that in my country, today there is a significant percentage of women participation at decision making levels, including parliament, government, and other institutions at central and local level. Their contribution, expertise, experience, perspectives are  important and valuable for Albania, and we do not have the luxury to lose them.

I support the IGC Panel Parity Pledge.

I support the IGC gender-based violence pledge.
