The 2024 Women in Diplomacy IndexΒ shows that only 1/5 of ambassadors globally are women. There has been a lot of progress, but there's still a long way to go!
πŸŒπŸ‘©β€πŸ’ΌHow can women’s leadership shape Europe’s response to global challenges? We hosted a reception withΒ @EMInternationalΒ to spotlight women leaders’ role to strengthen cooperation and drive positive change. Thanks to speakers @CarolineAReadΒ &Β @PetrosFassoulas,Β and all our guests

✈️Delighted to open our event on European airspace at the πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Residence. With the UK managing 25% of Europe’s traffic and 80% of Europe’s transatlantic traffic, cross-border cooperation is vital to minimise disruption and keep passengers moving safely this summer and beyond.

Sir David’s message: β€˜the ocean is the planet's support system and humanity's greatest ally against climate catastrophe'. Protecting 30% of oceans would β€˜protect our climate, our food, our home’. If left alone, 'oceans can recover faster than we ever imagined’.

The UK's international leadership builds on innovative domestic legislation. Our mandatory Biodiversity Net Gain approach to nature-positive development in England ensures that habitats for wildlife are left in a measurably better state than they were before.
