W.O.B.Y. — Women of Brand YOUth · Brand YOUth Global Inc.
Women’s Forum Series:
Voices Across Borders
2022
Seven Saturdays · March 12 – April 23, 2022 · 11:30 AM – 12:30 PM EST
This is part of the record. Seven Saturdays in the spring of 2022, Brand YOUth Global convened women from across the diaspora — doctors, diplomats, entrepreneurs, educators, and advocates — to do what the organization has always done: bring purpose-driven people into the same room and trust what happens next. The Women’s Forum Series was not a panel. It was a declaration that women’s voices, in all their complexity, belong at the center of every conversation about leadership, legacy, and the future.

Brand YOUth Global presents an International Women’s Forum Series of conversations on various women issues and inclusive leadership.
This platform aims at attracting empowering speakers and thought-leaders to highlight women’s voices and visions, ensure meaningful and impactful engagements, stimulate intergenerational conversations, create relationship opportunities, and unite purpose with experience, knowledge, wisdom and power.
- What did we learn from the common experience of our parents and grandparents?
- How did this shape the way we think?
- What should we take and what should we leave?
