The Nordic region didn’t rise to the top of global gender equality rankings by coincidence. It got there through decades of deliberate policy choices: parental leave systems, childcare infrastructure, political quotas, and pay transparency.

This event will speak on what worked, what it cost, and what it took to get there. With first-hand experience from inside the rooms where these policies were designed, fought for, and implemented, speakers will discuss on the strategies that succeeded, the trade-offs that were necessary, and the results that followed.
