Emine Kaya:
"I would like to introduce myself personally as the recently appointed Programme Manager Gender, Peace and Security at WO=MEN. The strength of the people, the diversity of WO=MEN and especially the motto: 'actions speak louder than words' appeal to me greatly.
Previously I have worked in various places, both within and outside national government, such as the ministry of Justice and Security, the European Commission in Brussels and the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights in Vienna.

My strength is connecting people from outside and inside, ensuring that we join forces to solve complex social challenges, especially related to gender justice. Besides my work for WO=MEN I also uphold the position for the Supervisory Board of the Liliane Foundation and chair of the Dutch Chapter of Eisenhower Fellows. I expect to be able to support WO=MEN, its members and the organization with expertise and pleasure.”

Emine Kaya started her new role in September 2024, and we would like to wish her much success and give her a warm welcome.
