Honored to be part of the #RoleModels campaign for International Women's Day this Saturday!
March 4 2025
In a world where more and more rights of Women and Girls are being taken away, I am proud to be part of a campaign that celebrates women.
We live in a world where rights to Health Care, the right to Education, and even the right to Speak or Sing in public are taken away for Women and Girls.
The Netherlands is not an island and we too are moving in the wrong direction.
—> All Dutch Development spend that promotes the rights of women and girls internationally has been cut by Minister Faber.
—> We have government parties that call for registration of reasons for abortion in The Netherlands. A first step to decreasing Freedom of Choice.
Rights are being restricted.
We have to speak up!
There is too much at stake
At Equals they believe visibility sparks opportunity.
We are all equals.
The Role Models campaign brings together 130 inspiring role models to showcase stories of perseverance, innovation and success. Breaking down barriers and opening doors for future leaders in every field. Where every role model lights the way for tomorrow’s trailblazers.
