Why are Women in Leadership Important?
Women’s influence makes a difference in the world.
Female empowerment and leadership are proven to reduce poverty,benefit the
environment, and boost the economy.
However, women are still subjected to discrimination,
unfair differences in pay, and limited opportunities to take on leadership roles.
In fact, the World Economic Forum predicts that it will take over 135 years
to reach gender equality.
The Women’s Leadership Initiative Club at John Cabot
University acknowledges these obstacles and works with students,faculty ,
alumni, and the professional world to promote gender equity and create a safe
and enriching space for women in the community.
