Please join us for a film screening of The Feminister which follows the career of former Swedish Foreign Minister Margot Wallström, the first to institute “feminist foreign policy” which has since been adopted by a number of countries around the world. The film traces the secret talks she mediated between North Korea and the United States and Sweden’s campaign for election to the UN Security Council, among her many impactful foreign policy initiatives.
The discussion will be led by Dulcie Leimbach, editor and co-founder of PassBlue, an independent, women-led nonprofit multimedia news company that closely covers the US-UN relationship, women’s issues, human rights, peacekeeping and other urgent global matters.
Margot Wallström is a Swedish politician of the Social Democratic Party who served as Deputy Prime Minister of Sweden and Minister for Foreign Affairs from 2014 to 2019. Wallström previously served as the first United Nations Special Representative on Sexual Violence in Conflict from 2010 to 2012, as Vice-President of the European Commission from 2004 to 2010, European Commissioner for the Environment from 1999 to 2004 and a cabinet Minister from 1988-1999.
