Women Hold the Solutions
March 4th, New York City
In honor of International Women's Day 2010, the Global Fund for Women hosted "Women Hold the Solutions," an evening of spirited conversation with leading feminist activists and New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof. Some 500 supporters gathered for the dynamic discussion, facilitated by President and CEO Kavita Ramdas. GFW grantees Pinar Ilkkarancan, Debbie Kaddu- Serwadda and Sharon Bhagwan Rolls joined Kristof on stage. The three women leaders—from Turkey, Uganda, and Fiji respectively— reflected on controversial topics, such as growing Islamophobia and offered compelling examples of women leading solutions to some of the world's most intractable problems.
