The Women in Green Forum is the world’s premier conference series highlighting women’s impact on the environmental industry. Its mission is to create a venue for sustainability professionals to develop the skills necessary for professional success, to promote women’s leadership across the environmental industry, and to channel our efforts to build a better world where all people have equal access to and are involved in leadership and decision-making. Always a ‘sold out’ event, the Forum convenes an international audience of sustainability experts, including academic researchers, CSR executives, energy analysts, and technology developers, who share insights about the newest and most cutting-edge environmental innovations. From the White House to Fortune 500 company leaders, the Forum’s program features the environmental industry’s brightest and most innovative speakers. Moreover, the Forum makes its comprehensive speaker roster from all previous programs public so that other event organizers can utilize it as a valuable resource to recruit women to speak at their industry conferences or events (<a href="http://womeningreenforum.com/speaker-roster">http://womeningreenforum.com/speaker-roster</a>). The Forum also works to support the next generation of sustainability innovators through its Youth Leadership Program, which provides scholarships for students to attend the Forum, connects students with established environmental professionals through a mentorship program, and shines a spotlight on the contributions young women are making in the environmental movement through the presentation of the annual Youth Trailblazer Award.
