Paul Bekkers
Ambassador and Permanent Representative,
Permanent Mission of the Kingdom of the Netherlands to the United Nations and other International Organizations in Geneva

We want to build a society in which gender is no longer a hindrance to education, employment, entrepreneurship and leadership. Breaking down gender barriers should therefore be a priority in our daily work. I made my choice to make a difference and encourage you to do the same.
I support the IGC Panel Parity Pledge.
I support the IGC gender-based violence pledge.
Personal Commitments
