Call for Participation
The World Congress of Global Partnership for Young Women 2016 takes place Monday, August 1 through Friday, August 12, 2016, in historic Seoul, South Korea. This year’s theme of “Creating Together: Capacity Building and Sustainable Development for Women” examines the concepts of women’s empowerment, capacity building, and sustainable development and women’s empowerment as a key process in achieving gender equality, and, through that, sustainable development, and the benefits to society as a whole. Important motifs of the Congress will be how concepts of women’s empowerment and sustainable development are inextricably tied together in terms of intra and inter-generational justice and, furthermore, what can be done, needs to be done, and is being done for women’s empowerment, both with regard to the building of a dedicated, enabling policy environment and means for enhancing women’s capacity as active change agents for sustainable development.
The Congress includes distinguished Panels in the following areas: ‘SDGs and Empowerment of Women’ and ‘Womenomics and Transformation’. Additionally, the Congress will host a Presidents’ Round Table dedicated to ‘Global Partnership among Universities’ as well as a Poster Session and Special Session, Student Contests (in the areas of ‘Career and Development’, ‘Health and Nutrition’,‘Information and Communications Technology’, and ‘Art and Design’), General and Selective Training, Field Trip, and Korean Cultural Night, all interspersed with multiple opportunities for networking. The Congress brings together leading scholars and researchers, prominent business leaders, and other renowned dignitaries to address critical women’s empowerment issues in contemporary society, and in particular developing world societies
Promising young women who are selected for participation will have the opportunity to not only engage the luminaries who will grace the Congress with their presence, but also to participate in various Student Contests. The Congress pushes the boundaries of women’s empowerment studies, explores core concepts and ideas, and creates new conceptual configurations for women’s empowerment – all of which shapes interdisciplinary discourses.
The World Congress of Global Partnership for Young Women 2016 is hosted by the Organizing Committee of the Global Partnership for Young Women with UN Women. Our Congress venues, Lotte Hotel and Duksung Women’s University, are located in Seoul’s bustling and scenic central and northern districts.
