Women Who Advance Associations 2022: BreakTheBias

‘Women Who Advance’ celebrates the great talent, innovation, and diversity of the international association community. For International Women’s Day 2022, we are showcasing female leaders, trailblazers and change-makers who actively advance our association community.

As leading voices of our civil society, association leaders have the power to act as role models and engines for transformation. Through their leadership, they can help promote an inclusive environment where difference is valued and celebrated as a key tool for strategic development. In line with the 2022 IWD theme #BreakTheBias, ‘Women Who Advance 2022’ collects ideas and inspirations for association leaders who that aim to break with bias, stereotypes and discrimination – and who understand diversity, equity and inclusiveness as part of their strategic toolkit.

Join DGA Interel, Interel Association Management, visit.brussels, FAIB, ASSOCIATIONWORLD, GAHP, HQ Magazine and Kadrant Law in celebrating the remarkable achievements of unique leaders, and to promote an association sector that takes an activerole in forging an inclusive world.
