Time: 6.30 - 8pm
Venue: Hong Kong Theatre, Clement House
Speakers: Judith Brodie, Angela Sarkis, Marianna Tortell
Chair: Professor Jude Howell
This panel discussion explores the issue of gender equality, diversity and NGOs. Is there anything distinctive about the way NGOs approach this issue? Are NGOs more diverse in terms of gender, ethnicity and class compared to businesses or state agencies? What differences are there amongst NGOs in the extent to which they place gender issues on the agenda? And with more women taking up senior positions in NGOs what do they bring, as women, to these issues?
Judith Brodie is Director of the UK Group of Voluntary Service Overseas. Angela Sarkis CBE is National Secretary of the YMCA, and Marianna Tortell is Director of Training and Group Work at The NIA Project.
This event is free and open to all with no ticket required. Entry is on a first come, first served basis. More info here
