The Pavol Jozef \u0160af\u00e1rik University in Ko\u0161ice respects and supports the role of women in society, which is underlined by the participation of the Vice-Rector for Undergraduate and Lifelong Learning, JUDr. \u013dudmila Elbert, PhD, University Associate Professor, at the panel discussion “The Role of Women in the 21st Century”. It was organised by the Slovak Chamber of Commerce and Industry on 30 May 2024 with the aim to present women working in business, industry, economic diplomacy, science, research and education and to show opportunities for mutual networking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The topics discussed included, among others, the stereotypes of women’s position in society, the important support from men in women’s careers, as well as the obstacles that women themselves impose on other women in their career development. Experiences were shared not only by successful women from Slovakia, but also by foreign personalities working in our country – including the ambassadors of North Macedonia, Palestine, the Republic of India, the Netherlands, Spain, Italy and Canada, and the youth advisor for Bosnia and Herzegovina at the United Nations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
