WWDA congratulates our CEO, Carolyn Frohmader, who has been selected from over 300 nominees worldwide, to be a member of the Global Civil Society Reference Group for the international Spotlight Initiative.
 
The Spotlight Initiative is a global, multi-year partnership between the United Nations and the European Union to eliminate all forms of violence against women and girls. The Spotlight Initiative represents an unprecedented effort to invest in gender equality and women’s empowerment as a precondition and driver for the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals.
 
Carolyn looks forward to representing women and girls with disability on the Global Civil Society Reference Group for this important global initiative.
