DESCRIPTION:Bank bailouts, fiscal stimulus and bankruptcy counseling. Amidst the 
 solutions proposed to fix the current global economic crisis, why do so few 
 of the pundits and policymakers discuss the role of women? Join the World 
 Affairs Council in conversation with Mary Ellen Iskenderian, President and 
 CEO of Women's World Banking, and Sharon Vosmek, CEO of Astia, as they 
 discuss the global impact of women on economic development-from 
 microfinance to leaders of multimillion dollar companies. The speakers will 
 explore the work of their organizations, which respectively recruit, train 
 and support women running both small ventures as well as high growth, high 
 capital outfits. They will discuss how investing in women as a business 
 strategy creates a sound social and financial approach to alleviating the 
 current crisis and preventing others. \n\nThis program will be followed by 
 a wine reception.\n\nCheck-in: 6:00 PM, Program 6:30 PM, Reception: 7:30
