UN Women Rise for All

The sessions were moderated by former CNN Host Zane Verjee and included Deputy Secretary of the UN Amina Mohammed, Prime Minister of Barbados Mia Mottley, President of Switzerland Simonetta Sommaruga, Former President of Liberia Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, Minister of Education and Culture for Mozambique Graça Machel. The Empire team worked with the UN team to create the overall event and Run of Show, handled logistics for all speakers, worked with talent (Andra Day sung “Rise Up”), and developed the virtual venue website along with Gramercy Tech.
