Peter Sweetnam

Gender should never decide how far a person can dream, how loudly we can speak, or how high they can rise. Equity means that we should all be striving to break the barriers that prevent people, especially women and girls, from being able to become everything they are capable of.

I support the IGC Panel Parity Pledge.

I support the IGC gender-based violence pledge.

Personal Commitments

I commit to ensuring that all Plan International Ethiopia programmes are either gender-transformative or gender-aware, in line with Plan International's gender equality standards.
I commit to actively promote and emphasise the role of women and young women in economic development by participating in at least one public event.
