Embracing Diversity : Lessons from the For-Profit Sector

EVENT REPORT

In November 2022, the European Union (EU) adopted a new law mandating gender balance on corporate boards, setting ambitious targets for equality in gender representation. To meet these goals, the private sector has already begun to reshape its governance structures.

This means that the imperative for diverse and inclusive governance structures is no longer an option: it is essential for your Association’s success and efficiency.
