Nau Mai, Haere Mai to the 10th Annual Women in Leadership Summit

What an honour it is to join all of you for this very special Women in Leadership Summit this November in Te Whanganui-a-Tara as we mark its milestone 10th year!

 

Last year's kōrero was truly inspiring. Not only did we learn from the remarkable stories of emerging and established female leaders, but the proceeds from the summit have also been instrumental in enabling UN Women's mahi to end gender-based violence. This demonstrates that violence against women and girls can be systematically addressed, reduced, and, with persistence, eliminated.

 

We are incredibly excited about this year's event and what it has in store. Diversity in leadership is central to achieving gender equality. Including diverse voices and perspectives is essential to dismantling systemic barriers and cultural norms that still prevail in Aotearoa New Zealand today.

 

UN Women Aotearoa NZ New Zealand is privileged to stand in partnership vwith the Women in Leadership Summit. With 10% of all ticket sales supporting UN Women Aotearoa New Zealand, we advance UN Women's initiatives in the Pacific and worldwide, ensuring equitable opportunities for all women and girls, everywhere.

 

Together, let's pave the way for equal opportunities and create a brighter, more inclusive future for all. We look forward to welcoming you to this impactful event.
