Every edition of the International Women’s Conference is driven by the theme of the summit. Women leaders of global prominence, along with those at the grass roots who have worked in more anonymous, but equally powerful ways, share experiences, ideas, and life stories revolving around the theme. They inspire others to create a network of women that are today bonded by a common commitment to effect social transformation. This network has encouraged and initiated dialogue and projects on bridging the gap between the rural and urban woman, empowering women them for a better tomorrow.
