On the occasion of the International Day of Women in Diplomacy (24 June), the Ministry of Foreign Affairs proudly recognises and celebrates the exceptional contributions of our nation’s female diplomats.
Their unwavering dedication, strength, and professionalism continue to elevate our country’s global presence.
“In every negotiation led, every partnership nurtured, and every flag raised, our female diplomats embody national pride and the steady progress toward greater equity in global diplomacy,” said Roxie McLeish Hutchinson, Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Foreign Affairs. “Their work is more than policy and protocol — it is a powerful demonstration of leadership that inspires both at home and abroad.”
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs emphasises that the presence of women in diplomacy is not only appreciated but essential. Their contributions are shaping history, setting new standards, and opening doors for future generations.
The ministry remains steadfast in its commitment to supporting the journey of women in diplomacy and celebrating their achievements.
Happy International Day of Women in Diplomacy!
