“As we approach the 35th anniversary of the Charter we are reminded that equality in general - and gender equality in particular - is a foundational principle for the establishment not only of a just society but one that is also compassionate and humane. It will be a celebratory moment when we can achieve gender equity in corporate leadership.”
