“Where we clearly need more improvement is in the inclusion of women in mediation and leadership roles in the OSCE and other international organizations. … Again, this is not about ‘doing a favor‘ for women – this is to make better policy and improve outcomes for all.”

 

I support the IGC Panel Parity Pledge.

I support the IGC gender-based violence pledge.

Personal Commitments

I will organize a public event to shine a spotlight on the women, peace, and security agenda in support of Ukraine.
I will model and champion a healthy work-life balance within the U.S. Mission to the OSCE and ensure that all recurring internal meetings at the U.S. Mission to the OSCE are scheduled between the hours of 09:30 am and 4:00 pm.
