Breaking the Bias: WINS ED Becomes International Women’s Day Influencer

We’re delighted to announce that WINS’ Executive Director, Lars van Dassen, is now an International Women’s Day (IWD) Influencer. Mr van Dassen is featured on the IWD webpage along a handful of other executive leaders who are leading the way in women advancement.

The theme for this year’s IWD is breaking the bias. In Mr van Dassen’s influencer statement, he said,

“The contribution of women to nuclear security is profound. However, barriers remain as women are underrepresented at all levels of nuclear security. A fundamental underpinning to most of these barriers is – one way or another – gender bias. And through WINS’ Gender Programme, we are continuously working to #BreakTheBias.”
