Creating positive footprints

Roundtable debate: Closing the Skills Gap

At the House of Lords, Pink Shoe hosted the UK launch of a ground breaking report from EY launched at the WEF at Davos. 


APPGE Co-chairman the Earl of Erroll got the event off to a lively start. Julie Teigland of EY then outlined the 5 key aims of the report.

On behalf of DfID Baroness Verma then shared with us the activities of the High Level Panel, which Justine Greening is a member.

We then heard from Maria Miller MP about the excellent progress being made by the Women and Equalities Committee.







The discussion chaired by Jill Pay debated the key ideas with delegates. 

We then enjoyed the inspiring closing remarks from Pink Shoe’s longstanding friend Lorely, Baroness Burt before adjourning for the reception.
