In a recent podcast episode, we had the honor to be joined by the former Minister of Finance and current Minister of Defense, Minister for Mobility and Public Works and Minister for Gender Equality and Diversity in Luxembourg, Yuriko Backes.
The Minister started our conversation by discussing a transformative initiative that marked a significant milestone in the pursuit of gender equality—the Luxembourg Women in Finance Charter and shared profound insights into her experiences and the broader efforts to promote gender equality.
