Director General,
United Nations Industrial Development Organization
We cannot address the global challenges of our time—ending poverty and hunger and protecting the environment—if gender inequalities persist. It is our duty to secure women's access to decent jobs, create an enabling environment for women’s entrepreneurship to thrive, and support women’s leadership to foster inclusive and sustainable industrial development for a green recovery.
I support the IGC Panel Parity Pledge.
I support the IGC gender-based violence pledge.
