Women’s Leadership: Public Service and Global Health Day 4

The final day of the conference has begun at the Hotel de Talleyrand at the US Embassy, where delegates will hear speakers from the Woodrow Wilson Center, UNESCO and Smith College. Yesterday’s visit to UNESCO and meeting with the delegations from the US, Canada and Rwanda was a highlight of the conference, as was a passionate presentation on connecting health professionals through social media and matching ideas with resources. Women’s Leadership: Public Service and Global Health has been an incredible opportunity and we are excited to see how connections forged in Paris this week will impact the work of our delegates and their communities going forward.


Program sessions will be at the Talleyrand Building of the U.S. Embassy (Paris).
