Gender equality and women’s empowerment celebrated at the largest World Expo.
Expo 2020 Dubai has collaborated with French luxury conglomerate Cartier to unveil the Women’s Pavilion. Reaffirming their commitment to gender equality, the exhibition will be centered around the theme of New Perspectives. It will feature creative content celebrating the historical achievements of women in contributing to global society, foregrounding female artists including Lebanese actress and director Nadine Labaki and French architect Laura Gonzalez.
In a statement, Cartier elaborated, “Celebrating the significant – and often forgotten – contributions of women, the pavilion will demonstrate an important principle: when women thrive, all of humanity thrives. It will highlight important contributions women have made in advancing societies, as well as the challenges women still face, especially as the world navigates through the COVID-19 pandemic and works toward a more sustainable future..."
The World Expo, rescheduled to take place from October 1, 2021 to March 31, 2022 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, is the first to be hosted in the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia region. It is set to be the largest World Expo, with over 190 participating countries. The Expo is centered around themes of sustainability, hosting exhibitions such as the Terra Sustainability Pavilion- constructed in accordance with the highest accreditation for sustainable architecture.
The collaboration aims to foreground female empowerment and gender equality at an international forum that welcomes visitors from across the globe.
