Drawing on the global reach and reputation of the International Herald Tribune and the Thomson Reuters Foundation, the philanthropic arm of the world’s biggest news and information provider, Trust Women seeks to empower women to know and defend their rights.
Trust Women reaches across the profit and non-profit division, engaging both women and men, with resources from the legal, financial, government, corporate, and non-profit sectors, who believe women are an equal part of the solution to the world’s most pressing problems.
Trust Women is not your typical conference. It’s for those who demand action, not just talk.
December 4th and 5th in London.
Conference Themes
- Rewriting the rules: Embedding women’s rights in constitutions
- How to put the trafficking business out of business?

- Women and finance: The high cost of exclusion
