The last election revealed critical domestic and global issues that are high on the consensus agenda of America’s women, men and the country as a whole. Join nationally recognized researchers and leaders to discuss the unique role that women’s leadership has played in addressing these issues. Drawing on revealing findings from a national poll commissioned by the National Council for Research on Women and other research, panelists will identify strategies for grappling with national security, globalization, health, violence, and other twenty-first century issues. The conversation will feature insights from the forefront of change in public, private, national, and global arenas.

Linda Basch, President, National Council for Research on Women

Speakers:

Lisalyn R. Jacobs, Vice President for Government Relations, Legal Momentum

Marge Magner, Founding Partner, Brysam Global Partners
