They shared their insights and promoted inclusive and equitable solutions, with a focus on 4 key areas: climate, health, empowerment and peace.
The Women’s Forum’s vision is to build a fairer, more inclusive world, where women’s voices are heard, in the same way as men’s, in the political, economic and public spheres.
During this edition, the focus was on concrete actions to act on major issues such as:
The fight against climate change is a no brainer. Our challenge in Europe, with the energy crisis, is the security of supply and affordability, however, it comes hand in hand with a sustainable energy. Let’s not oppose the two.
Charlotte Roule, CEO, Engie
