This month VP International Jacqui McLoughlin and I attended the BPW European
Presidents meeting via zoom. It was a chance to meet new members following elections,
and to be updated on the membership figures which are increasing again post-Covid.
Reports were shared from EWL (European Women’s Lobby) and the Council of Europe
Parliamentary assembly, where we are represented by Pinella Bombacci, Past European
Co-ordinator.

Beijing +30 is still a part of the ongoing work of many of us, and a reminder of the
