On the occasion of the International Women’s Day, Europa Nostra is pleased to reconvene our growing and dynamic #Women4Heritage network on 8 March 2024, 11:00-12:30 CET. The 2024 edition of the #Women4Heritage online gathering will emphasise the essential role of women leadership in culture-based climate action, with a particular focus on the Global Call to put Culture at the Heart of Climate Action which was initiated at the COP 28.
This year, on 8 March, Europa Nostra invites women who are heritage leaders, practitioners, innovators, communicators and volunteers of all ages and from all countries to join our #Women4Heritage virtual event. Attendees will have the opportunity to hear firsthand from female leaders who played a decisive role in building momentum through the Global Call to Action for achieving a groundbreaking milestone at COP 28: the launch of the Group of Friends for Culture-based Climate Action. They are currently further mobilising public and civil society support for such action in Europe and globally ahead of COP 29 in Baku (Azerbaijan) and COP 30 in Bélem (Brazil).
Their testimonies will be followed by exchanges with heritage stakeholders from all over Europe and will encourage the participants to share their experiences, concerns and efforts in the quest for stronger gender parity in the framework of the protection, promotion and enhancement of cultural and natural heritage in Europe and beyond as a vector for more effective climate action.
This online gathering is free-of-charge but registration is compulsory. Due to limited capacity, we kindly ask you to register as soon as possible to secure your participation. You are welcome to extend this invitation to your colleagues. While today we shine a spotlight on women, our male colleagues are also more than welcome and encouraged to join as well!
