Rebecca Jovin
Chief of Office,
United Nations Office for Disarmament Affairs at Vienna (UNODA)
Women have been at the forefront of many breakthroughs in disarmament and arms control efforts, yet remain underrepresented in disarmament decision-making fora. Only the full and equal participation and leadership of women in decision-making can achieve meaningful and lasting solutions to global disarmament challenges.
I support the IGC Panel Parity Pledge.
I support the IGC gender-based violence pledge.
