Vital Voices Bold Movers Program 2025 [Cohort 2]

The Vital Voices Bold Movers Program created in partnership between Stuart Weitzman and Vital Voices Global Partnership, is designed to invest in women changemakers working to achieve their next social impact milestone.

In a recent study by Harvard Business Review, more than half of women executives cited their mid-career (early 30s to late-40s) as the stage where they faced the most gender bias in the workplace. It is during this time that women deal with gendered assumptions of labor, hyper-scrutiny, and unequal access to opportunities.

They seek to meet these women to help them confront gender-biases and take the next step in their social impact work through engaging trainings, community building sessions, one-on-one mentorship, and meaningful networking opportunities to grow their leadership capacity.

• Build leadership and confidence through tailored skills-building trainings and community-building sessions.
