"Madeleine Albright, Trailblazing Secretary of State, Dies"
Read the TIME Magazine magazine obituary for Madeleine Albright, featuring remarks from Our Secure Future’s Jolynn Shoemaker on her impact on women’s leadership.
“From the perspective of women’s leadership, it was obviously a huge shift in terms of showing that a woman could be a successful Secretary of State, and I think the optics of that were not lost on an entire generation or more of women.”
“She’s had a very significant imprint on how we think about the world and how we think about U.S. contributions and influence in the world,” says Jolynn Shoemaker, a professor of national security and a fellow at Our Secure Future, where she focuses on women’s leadership in foreign policy.
In Vienna, ONN, the Austrian Institute for European and Security Policy (AIES), and the Vienna School of International Studies convened a high-level panel on women’s leadership in global security, calling for inclusive, human-centred approaches to move beyond fear, force and deterrence.
In partnership with the Austrian Institute for International Affairs (OIIP), ONN convened a diverse group of experts in Vienna to challenge entrenched security thinking. The roundtable explored feminist leadership, inclusion and human-centred approaches to nuclear policy and sustainable peace.
