The second panel will cover overcoming adversity.

Beyond the speaker sessions, The International Women’s conference celebrates women’s social, economic, cultural, and political achievements. It celebrates the power of individual women and their vibrant and diverse accomplishments.

Registration for the International Women’s Conference is now open.
