Women's Leadership, Health, and AI on a Global Scale | Smriti Irani | Raisina Dialogue 2024

Описание: Raisina Dialogue 2024 | Her Road from India: From Boardrooms to Global Institutions | Moving beyond tokenism to actual and effective representation of women in positions of power and decision-making requires political will. India has shown this through legal provisions to enhance female representation. This panel will discuss how female representation can be increased across domains and geographies—including the private sector and international governance.

Can we rely on the incumbents in positions of power—namely, men—to cede space? If not, how can we carve that space?

How can we ensure that multilateral institutions reflect the enhanced role that women now occupy in national and local governance? How do we increase the number of women in foreign policy?

How can we move closer to a world in which women are employed at equal positions and in equivalent numbers as men—and paid as much?

Have we made sufficient advances in ensuring that women are represented in the academic and professional tracks—from AI to energy—that will determine tomorrow’s economic outcomes?

Can maternity be turned from a disadvantage, to be compensated for, to an advantage in the workplace?
