Special Meeting for Fawn Advisory Board, Board Members and Gold Members 

Finnish & American Women’s Network Advisory Board, Fawn Board Members and Gold Members were invited to network and exchange ideas on Tuesday May 10, 2011, and enjoyed dinner during the discussion.   
We would like to thank our Advisory Board Member, Consul General of Finland, Ambassador Ritva Jolkkonen for hosting this event.  
Ritva Jolkkonen talked about the topic "Gender challenges from different perspectives" and everybody shared ideas and experiences. The consensus was that while there is definitive progress, many challenges still remain. Advice was also given regarding themes for future events including wellness, design, etc.
