2024 marks 40 years since Geraldine Ferraro made history as the first woman Vice Presidential nominee of a major political party in the United States. In celebration of this anniversary, Vital Voices hosted an event opened by Vital Voices Senior Advisor on SDGs Manira Alva including a screening of “Geraldine Ferraro: Paving the Way,” a documentary directed and produced by her daughter Donna Zaccaro, followed by a panel discussion. Moderated by Nina Easton, award-winning columnist and Vital Voices board member, the panel featured three incredible women carrying on Ferraro’s political legacy: U.S. Senator for New York Kirsten Gillibrand, U.S. Senator for Minnesota Amy Klobuchar and Speaker Emerita of the House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi. “There’s no one in the history of the world like you, and that’s your power,” said Pelosi. “Know your power, know your ‘why’ and always be ready. Nothing is more wholesome to the political or governmental process than the increased participation and leadership of women. We believe that when women succeed, America succeeds.” #GeraldineFerraro #PavingTheWay #WomenInPolitics #vitalvoices

“As a woman leader, I know that even if I may not be able to stop or prevent crisis from happening, I can detect it, mitigate it, manage it or control it” - Hawwah A. Gambo, Participant in the Vital Voices Crisis Readiness Program in Kenya. 10 women leaders gathered in Nairobi, Kenya this past week at the conclusion of our new Vital Voices Crisis Readiness Program. Leaders spent seven weeks learning how to mitigate risk, developing tools to protect themselves and their organizations in the face of crisis, and creating and testing actionable safety plans.
