REYKJAVÍKGLOBAL
FORUM

The Reykjavík Global Forum – Women Leaders is both a convening and a community. Launched in 2018 under the heading of Power, Together, the forum convenes women leaders from all sectors, including politics, business, civil society, academia, the arts and media, to share ideas and solutions on how to further advance society towards equality and to promote and positively develop the number of women in leadership positions.  Attracting hundreds of Conversationists each year, the Forum offers a unique lens into the best practices and proven solutions that leaders are deploying across sectors to achieve parity. We work with some of the most influential leaders, compelling speakers, and innovative problem solvers in the world.

  • The Reykjavik Index: For the sixth year, the Index will be introduced by Kantar Public, including a breakout analysis on the Nordic countries, which generally score higher for gender equality. The forum will highlight additional global research studies that intersect with the Index
