Kiev Global Summit
“WOMEN.TRUST.PEACE”
Plenary discussions:
- 1 Inclusive policy: increasing the influence of women on government decision-making as a guarantee of sustainable development.
The growing number of women in power is an undeniable and steady trend. How do we turn quantity into quality? How can a woman politician become an effective leader who influences the adoption and implementation of government decisions?
- 2 Trust – is the foundation of peace and security.
Has there been a recent loss of public confidence in the state and vice versa? But solving the global problems facing all countries of the world requires unification and joint action, which is possible only with mutual trust. How to regain this trust?
- 3 The post-pandemic future of health and education systems.
Education and health are not just fundamental human rights, but the most powerful driving force for progress towards sustainable development and the basis for a just, equitable, inclusive and peaceful society. The COVID-19 pandemic has led to the largest failure in the history of these systems. What important decisions need to be made to shape their effective “post-pandemic” future?
