(Office of Her Majesty – Press Department – The Dead Sea) - Queen stresses Jordan's role as connecting point for better future

Her Majesty Queen Rania Al-Abdullah stressed Jordan’s role as a vital connecting point for paths that foresee a better future.

She said that while Jordan served as a launching ground for a Roadmap plan when it hosted the Aqaba summit earlier this month, the country is also honored to be part of a “route that brings vital humanitarian assistance” to Iraqi people especially children with serious health conditions.

(Office of Her Majesty, Press Department - The Dead Sea) Over 120 Women from around the world engaged in a lively dialogue to address vital issues relating to the participation of women in the social, economic, and political development process.

The session, held as part of the World Economic Forum’s (WEF) Extraordinary Meeting at the Dead Sea, brought together women activists representing business, social development and economic sectors to create a platform to change mindsets that limit opportunities for women.
