The future is better with women at the table.
Women leaders have been underrepresented, undervalued and undermined for far too long.

Maya Angelou, born #OnThisDay, did not shy away from speaking up for what she believed in.
Let's echo her words & stand up for not only ourselves, but also for our sisters.

No one is too young (or old) to change the world — but young people are often underrepresented in decision-making roles.
Eliminate the structural, systematic and societal barriers that hold them back.

We need more women in leadership roles!

Gender equality can only be achieved if #AllWomen & girls are included. This means #LGBTIQ+ women too!
Your voice is your power – raise it! Together, we can create a truly free & equal world for all.

In all their diversity, more women must have a seat at the decision-making table!
