No personality has just one dimension - or even two. People are
fascinating concoctions of multiple experiences... And such is
today's guest.
Her Royal Highness Princess Tessy of Luxembourg has extensive
experience in formal and informal diplomacy. She spent five years
in the military, a portion of which was as a peace-keeper in
Kosovo. Tessy passionately promotes a number of causes including
human rights, women’s rights and global health. In January 2017,
she received the 'Woman of the Decade Award' from the Women
Economic Forum for her work in women empowerment, security and
peace.
We discussed the role of the military and that of the United
Nations. We explored formal and informal education. We talked about
parenting and the value of exposing one's children to diversity at
a young age. Finally, HRH Tessy provided some actionable tools for
busy people in the world who want to find different ways to give
back to society.
A huge thank you to Naseba and the Global WIL Economic Forum 2017
