ADVOCACY
Shaping Policy for Equality
At Women in Tech® Global, advocacy is at the core of our mission to drive systemic change in the tech industry. Our initiatives under the Advocacy pillar have earned us remarkable recognition.
We are honoured to have our Women in Tech Global Summit held under the High Patronage of Mr. Emmanuel Macron, the President of the French Republic. The support of ministers, policymakers, and governments empowers us to create lasting change that will benefit women for generations to come.
Our role in public diplomacy is paramount. Women in Tech® engages in constructive dialogue with governments and the public, closely understanding their needs and desires. We participate in esteemed events such as Friends of Europe and the Reykjavik Women Political Leaders Global Forum. We’ve partnered with the US Department of Commerce to host the US x EU Women in Tech Trade mission, and we are proud founding members of Conversations Unscripted, an initiative driving gender equality in technology and politics.
Additionally, our Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with UN Women solidifies our commitment to advocating for gender equality on a global scale. Together, we are shaping policy and driving change that empowers women in technology.
