Rsa Events

Join us in London, Osaka and online for the second event in our global partnership with the UK at Expo 2025.The UK has a rich history of advancing women’s rights. In 1918, the Representation of the People Act granted voting rights to women over 30, with equal suffrage achieved in 1928. From the Equal Pay Act of 1970 to the Equality Act of 2010, trailblazing women have been at the forefront of building collective movements for progress and justice.But there remain stubborn challenges and barriers to women’s full economic, legal, and social empowerment.Linking speakers in the historic Great Room of the RSA in London and in the UK Pavilion at Expo 2025 Osaka, this event will hear from today’s disruptors, influencers and innovators leading the charge for the protection and advancement of the rights of women and girls in the UK, and internationally – and for a future where everyone has equal opportunity to achieve their full potential.SpeakersPenny East, Chief Executive at the Fawcett SocietySakshi Bansal, Founder
