PAAIA Co-Sponsors Iranian American Women’s Leadership Conference in Washington D.C.

April 21, 2012, Washington, D.C. – The Iranian-American Women’s Foundation (IAWF) was founded by Mariam Khosravani on the premise of women empowering and inspiring one another. The foundation provides a platform for dialogue among women leaders who pass on their knowledge and experience to others and spark connections that go far beyond IAWF’s annual leadership conference. IAW conferences are beneficial for seasoned professionals from various industries, those just entering the work force, students, and yes, even men.

IAWF has held two riveting and sold-out Women’s Leadership Conferences in the past two years, attended by more 600 people. Both conferences have received high praise for the diversity of speakers and the information provided.  This year, IAWF has joined forces with the Persian Gender Network, and the World Bank/IMF Iranian Staff Club for the third installment of the Women’s Leadership Conference. The day-long event, which will be held at the World Bank, will include distinguished speakers, various workshops and networking opportunities. The Leadership Conference will take place on Saturday, June 23, 2012 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and is sponsored by the Persian Gender Network and the World Bank/IMF Iranian Staff Club.

IAWF encourages attendees to purchase tickets to the Leadership Conference before May 15 to secure the special price of $100 per ticket. Registration after May 15 will cost $125 per ticket.
