Jasmine Stoughton, Project Director of the Mosaic Project at the Progressive Policy Institute (PPI), released the following statement in recognition of International Women’s Day:
“For years, women of all backgrounds have been continually underrepresented and unheard. In today’s world, the fight for diversity and equality has never been more important. On International Women’s Day, it’s imperative we recognize the steps we have made, while also keeping in mind the strides that still need to come.
“The Mosaic Project is proud of its work to uplift and promote women from all backgrounds in their respective policy fields. While policy conversations in the past have lacked essential voices, Mosaic is committed to continuing the fight for a seat at a male-dominated table.”
The Mosaic Project is a network of diverse women with expertise in the fields of economics and technology. Mosaic programming aims to bring new voices to the policy arena by connecting cohort members with opportunities to engage with top industry leaders, lawmakers, and the media.
The Progressive Policy Institute (PPI) is a catalyst for policy innovation and political reform based in Washington, D.C. Its mission is to create radically pragmatic ideas for moving America beyond ideological and partisan deadlock. Learn more about PPI by visiting progressivepolicy.org.
