Expo 2020 Dubai unveils the Women’s Pavilion in collaboration with Cartier

Celebrating the significant contributions of women, the pavilion will demonstrate an important principle: when women thrive, all of humanity thrives.

Expo 2020 Dubai has reaffirmed its commitment to gender equality and female empowerment, unveiling creative content and programming for the Women’s Pavilion in collaboration with Cartier.

Taking place in Dubai from 1 October 2021 to 31 March 2022 next year, the Women’s Pavilion will host an array of events, programming and meaningful dialogues that will not only enhance knowledge and understanding of gender equality and women’s empowerment, but also invites visitors from around the world to join the making of a new world.

Celebrating the significant contributions of women, the pavilion will demonstrate an important principle: when women thrive, all of humanity thrives. It will highlight important contributions women have made in advancing societies, as well as the challenges women still face, especially as the world navigates through the COVID-19 pandemic and works toward a more sustainable future.

Breaking stereotypes and deconstructing misconceptions on women’s roles, the pavilion will raise awareness by showcasing both female and male contributors to women’s empowerment and gender equality, inspiring visitors of all ages to become change-makers within their own communities and beyond.

Reem Al Hashimy, director general of Expo 2020 Dubai, and Cyrille Vigneron, chief executive of Cartier International, discussed Expo 2020’s role in offering a global platform to empower women and girls and to drive awareness of the Sustainable Development Goal of gender equality and women’s empowerment during a conversation with Becky Anderson, anchor for CNN.

Across the six months of Expo, the Women’s Pavilion will host an array of events, programming and meaningful dialogues that will not only enhance knowledge and understanding of gender equality and women’s empowerment, but also drive tangible, collaborative action that can be shared with the world. -news@magzoid.com
