The Initiative

Empowering Women in Culture

From 2017 to 2019, Women In Culture was a strategic initiative celebrating women’s empowerment and gender equality in the cultural sector. Through partnerships with UNESCO and The New York Times, we created a global movement valuing women’s voices and contributions.

The legacy of this initiative continues to shape our values and commitment to diversity and inclusion across all our programs.
