Women in Leadership
The role of women, in both social and religious settings, has a long history of transformation and evolution. In the present day, the imbalance of women to men in leadership is becoming less dramatic, creating greater opportunity for personal and professional development among individuals. The Women in Leadership Program Cluster will trace the historic trajectory of women's leadership and explore women's transition to more influential roles. By sharing stories of success, these sessions will act as a
catalyst for women to provide needed leadership in their own communities and to reach out as representatives of their religious and spiritual traditions. Both individually and through various networks, women have furthered a synthesis of spirituality and service. By expanding equality between women and men, we can aspire to create a world where all may reach their full human potential.
