Innovation must work for everyone. At VivaTech, UNESCO Deputy Director-General Åsa Regnér joined #Dior at the LVMH Pavilion to discuss how education, mentoring and innovation can help empower the next generation of women leaders. As part of the Women@Dior & #UNESCO programme, the conversation highlighted the importance of closing gender gaps in STEM, AI and entrepreneurship while supporting young women to transform ideas into impact. The discussion also showcased innovative projects developed by programme participants addressing women's health challenges through technology and entrepreneurship. At #VivaTech, UNESCO is engaging with partners across the technology and innovation ecosystem to help ensure that digital transformation advances inclusion, skills development and equal opportunities for all.
