Women Leading Change 

A milestone global gathering, co-sponsored by the Rockefeller and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundations, called “Women Leading Change (WLC): Conversations on Faith & Gender Equality” was staged virtually in March 2022. It emerged out of the 2021 17 Rooms initiative, with the goals of spotlighting the worldwide extent and diversity of women’s leadership for change in gender equality in faith contexts, capturing best practices and connecting women and advocates from across the globe. Jean served as Project Advisor.
