RAPAPORT... The role and
empowerment of women in the Latin American jewelry industry will be put under
the spotlight at the Second Latin American Diamond and
Jewelry Week in June.
A special meeting to discuss barriers women face to reach
boardrooms will be organized during the exhibition at the World Jewelry Hub.
The venue for the event in Panama City couldn’t be more “appropriate” because
the Panama Diamond Exchange has the distinction of appointing women to two of
its four senior management positions: senior vice-president Ali Pastorini and
VP Judy Meana.
"In organizing this meeting we plan to do a lot more
than just pay lip service to the subject," said Meana. "We want this
to be a first step in developing a concrete strategy for raising the
involvement of women in our industry, along with an action timetable."
