Janet Mbugua Instagram – “Conference With No Titles”—that’s how I’d describe the Reykjavík Global Forum: open rooms filled with voices that truly matter.
Sharing space with presidents, a Nobel laureate, former First Ladies (see the first image: from left to right, Former First Lady of Canada, Sophie Trudeau; Former First Lady of Iceland, Eliza Reid; and our panel moderator Jackie Jones).
The rooms were filled with founders and allies (second image), CEOs (or “SHE-EOs”), TV hosts, philanthropists, students, and young changemakers. And yet, titles were an afterthought, something I only realized later as I wrote this caption—because in that space, they were left at the door. Catch a great Day 1 highlights reel in the last slide, reposted from @reykjavikglobalforum.
The real focus? Bold, impactful conversations on tackling online violence, balancing power, building alliances, empowering the next generation, and dismantling harmful cycles.
These issues affect us all, titles aside. It’s a shared responsibility, and a reminder of our unity in finding solutions.
More to come!
