Society

In the “Society” category, experts, insiders and role models report on topics such as career opportunities for women, women as role models, gender portrayal in social media and the gender pay gap. Here, personalities who want to change something and do not accept the status quo have their say. You can learn from their experiences and expand your network. “Society” is an offer of the herCAREER expo, the leading expo for women’s career planning. You can get to the ticket store for admission tickets here.
