Foreign Policy

[close] Hello all! We are Women in Foreign Policy - an organisation that aims to encourage young women and girls to pursue a career in foreign policy. Being inspired and learning from strong, successful women is central to WIFP - and what better way to do that than by reading about them! Our aim is to choose a book each month related to women in leadership - their style, success and story. Anyone is free to post comments or questions throughout the month, but a more focused discussion will take place in the last week of each month. There will also be a physical meeting held at the end of each month for those in London able to attend. Please feel free to dip in and out on the months that suit and to add friends - we welcome all and look forward to delving into the world of female leaders with you!
