Women Leaders: Everyday is Women’s Day

International Women’s Day is on 8 March, but for women every day is Women’s Day: work and home, success and failure, families and friends, battles for equality and rights — they may come into focus once a year, but women live them every day.

In this episode of Women Leaders Ilana Bet-El talks to Arancha Gonzalez Laya, who knows much about the rights of women as well as the deliberations of government. Former Foreign Minister of Spain and Assistant Secretary General of the UN, she is currently Dean of the Paris School of International Affairs, a member of Global Women Leaders Voices.

Exploring more historical facts around International Women’s Day, discover why as a young girl in Spain Arancha was fascinated by the European Union and the Spanish perception on international and European affairs. With deep insight, Arancha shares her view on the current transiting word and international system failures, based on her proven experience of governmental deliberations and international institutions.
