Use of WORDS
To include UN Women in the program the Nordic representative, Asger Ryhl, was given the danish word for “NOW”, “NU”, on a silk ribbon. As a reminder that the need for improvements is urgent. Asger Ryhl was not able to attend the symposium, but he received the word in a little box together with the Istanbul collage.
