@L_K_Henning @iva_petkovic @MariEccles After 4 amazing years, we're proud of the work we've done and grateful for what we've learnt along the way - most importantly how to bring intersectionality to our campaign. For that we’d like to thank @sarahchander🥰 from @ENAREurope (5/9).

@L_K_Henning @iva_petkovic @MariEccles Only a few years ago, few voiced their concerns about all-white and male panels. Together with our Twitter followers, we’ve laughed and cried as event organisers in Brussels put same old speakers on panels. But along the way, things started to change. (3/9).
