Women Diplomats at the Forefront: Promoting Dialogue and Development in the Black Sea

On the occasion of International Women’s Day (8 March), the Permanent International Secretariat of the Organization of the Black Sea Economic Cooperation (BSEC PERMIS), in cooperation with the International Centre for Black Sea Studies (ICBSS), and under the auspices of the Georgian BSEC Chairmanship-in-Office, will organise the Webinar “Women Diplomats at the Forefront: Promoting Dialogue and Development in the Black Sea.”

The webinar will bring together senior women diplomats and practitioners from BSEC Member States and partner institutions, providing a platform for the exchange of experiences, good practices, and policy-oriented perspectives.

Discussions will focus on: the contribution of women to dialogue, peace, and cooperation in the wider Black Sea region; the role of women in strengthening BSEC as a confidence-building and conflict-prevention framework; the impact of increased gender balance in diplomatic services on shaping a more inclusive, resilient, and forward-looking regional vision; progress achieved in women’s empowerment and gender equality leading to increased representation of women in ambassadorial, consular, and senior diplomatic roles.
