Feminist Foreign Policy

The German G7 Presidency is guided by the motto "progress towards an equitable world". The German government is currently in the process developing a Feminist Foreign Policy to strengthen the rights, resources and representation of women and girls worldwide.

How does the concept of Feminist Foreign Policy translate into concrete policy steps and decisions, especially in dealing with conflicts and crises? What are the imminent areas for international cooperation between Canada and Germany and other like-minded partners?  

We are pleased to invite you to a panel discussion moderated by Jennifer Ditchburn, President and CEO of the Institute for Research on Public Policy, featuring:

• Her Excellency Sabine Sparwasser, Ambassador of the Federal Republic of Germany
