Women In Action: The Critical Role of Women Leading NGOs
All individuals (Members and Non Members) please go here to register under 'Standard Member> Public pricing'.
In the vital space of Non-Governmental Organizations, women are not just participants—they are pioneers, leaders driving change with empathy, resilience, and innovative thinking.
The value they bring lies within their purpose and passion for building more equity in Hong Kong and overcoming systemic and social barriers to achieving success in their organizations.
AWA's Women In Action is proud to organize The Critical Role of Women Leading NGOs, featuring AWA Foundation Grant recipients Catherine Gurtin of Pathfinders and Jess Hulton of The New Normal Charity HK, plus AmCham Charitable Foundation Grant recipient Virginie Goethals of RUN HK, to share their insights and experiences on the value women bring to NGOs.
The panel is moderated by Mother's Choice CEO, Sky Siu, and held at AmCham Community Hub in Central.
6PM Registration and 6:30PM Kick-off.
