Co-creating a manifesto for change

The following list of actions has been derived from the early findings of the project Gender Equality: Transforming Women’s Global Leadership. During the symposium on 27 March 2026, you will have the chance to discuss this draft manifesto. As part of the symposium, we will create a link for your to rank the items from highest to lowest priority and make suggestions for additions or exclusions. The results of this co-creation exercise will be fed back as part of the final plenary session.

 

A Decade of Dangerous Women

March 9, 2026
A Decade of Dnagerous Women event, Friday 6 March 2026

The Dangerous Women Project began at the University of Edinburgh on International Women's Day 2016, asking "what does it mean to be a dangerous woman?" A decade on, the Project has produced over 350 essays, three brilliant books, a whole host of events and a community of authors around the world. For International Women's Day 2026, IASH hosted a celebration of a decade of Dangerous Women. A new generation of writers offered short insights into their own favourite women from history and the modern day.
