  • Accelerating Impact DRAFT As of 20 November 2019 #Women4inclusion
    Taking the lead for inclusion: Accelerating impact DRAFT as of 20 November 2019 #Women4Inclusion The Women’s Forum Global Meeting 2019 explores how equality and inclusiveness can help us tackle some of the biggest challenges facing the world today. By including talents from the widest possible pool, we can reshape economies, transform systems and heal rifts. We can create a future of our choosing. Humanity is at a crossroads on an unsustainable, unequal path. New technologies are disrupting how we live, work and connect in profound and complicated ways. Unequal access to education and information limits human potential and stokes populism and bias. Where politics and culture are divisive, those who stand up for causes and marginalised groups are at real risk of violence. Climate change threatens our very existence. But it’s not too late to change this negative trajectory. Championing inclusion has real economic and social benefits. Business cannot thrive in an unequal, unstable society: wealth needs to benefit the whole of society, including those traditionally left behind. Education and job opportunities need to be available to every gender, class and ability/disability. And a fossil-free future will require fairer access to sustainable solutions across income levels. The Women’s Forum believes that by empowering women’s leadership and increasing women’s participation in every facet of society and the economy, we can accelerate progress. Through the theme of the Women’s Forum Global Meeting 2019, Taking the lead for inclusion: Accelerating impact, we can shift gears towards a more inclusive future, focusing on the issues of climate action, equal access to health, STEM, artificial intelligence, and economic empowerment, as well as women’s leadership and governance.

  • Taking the Lead for Inclusion Accelerating Impact
    Taking the lead for inclusion Accelerating impact Insights into the 2019 Women’s Forum Global Meeting Foreword The 2019 Women’s Forum Global Meeting, which occurred on 20 – 22 November at the Carrousel du Louvre in Paris, France, gathered global leaders from society and economy to take a stand for inclusion and discuss concrete ways to accelerate impact and equality. For 3 days, over 3,000 delegates from 95 countries and 800 organisations, including over 25% men, had the opportunity to learn and share ideas with 100 speakers in over 80 plenary, roundtable and workshop sessions. The world is at a turning point. Forces like technology, climate change and migration have the potential to divide us. Yet, there is an opportunity to turn these forces around for good: developing technology that increases access to health and eradicates bias; rallying society around finding climate solutions and transitioning to a sustainable future; and taking action that ensures economic empowerment for all. Inclusion is the nudge that tips the balance towards common goals. This was the vision of the 2019 Women’s Forum Global Meeting, which brought together leaders to “take the lead for inclusion” and “accelerate impact”. Taking the lead for inclusion means removing barriers and creating access, making it possible for people across geography, class, generation, race, ability or any other division to participate fully in social and economic life. Inclusion is essential for a just future, where gains from growth are widely shared and where no one gets left behind. Inclusion is more than improving representation of women. It involves activating women’s leadership and empowering them in more prominent and substantive decision-making roles to inform strategies that address the social and environmental challenges our world faces.

  • BBN Brevard Business News
    Brevard Business BBN News Vol. 34 No. 28 July 11, 2016 $1.00 A Weekly Space Coast Business Magazine with Publishing Roots in America since 1839 CareerSource Brevard develops talent solution around sector strategies By Ken Datzman ROCKLEDGE — As the job market rebounds, businesses are scrambling to find skilled talent to fill positions in order to stay competitive and grow their enterprises. For at least the last three years, research organizations have been ringing the alarm bell over concern of a coming skilled work–force shortage. Surveys show a serious supply–chain skills–gap talent shortage in manufacturing, in welding, and in other production fields. The impact of fewer skilled workers is being felt in communities of all sizes. There are currently more than 600,000 jobs available in manufacturing in the U.S., with the expectation that number could grow by 2 million by 2025 because of an aging work force and new technologies that create more jobs, according to a report by the Society of Manufacturing Engineers. “With the current unemployment rate in Brevard County sitting at 5 percent (4.8 percent for the state), the pool of available workers is much smaller than just a few years ago, especially for highly skilled talent,” said Judy Blanchard, the industry relations director for CareerSource Brevard, a regional public–private partnership under CareerSource Florida. She said, “Manufacturing is the No. 1 industry right now in Brevard County, with companies like Northrop Grumman Corp. and Embraer leading the way.” The latter company just began the production of its Legacy 450 and Legacy 500 aircraft at its recently expanded facility, where the Phenom 100 and Phenom 300 are already in production.
