empowering women and accelerating diversity and inclusion

JourneyWoman Women’s Speaker’s Bureau

We created our Women’s Speaker’s Bureau in August 2023 to respond to an urgent need — to do our part and help shift stereotypes and bring the issues of ageism, accessibility, safety and diversity to the forefront. Women are integral to travel and make 85% of all travel decisions. However, JourneyWoman’s December 2022 study, “The Influence and Affluence of the Solo Female Traveler Over 50”, showed that 70% of women over 50 felt ignored and undervalued by the travel industry, despite representing trillions in spending power.  Women over 50 are the fastest-growing demographic over the next 10 years, according to a recent study. 

We’ve noticed that there isn’t enough representation of women at webinars, conferences and events, and we want to change that.  As travellers, entrepreneurs, teachers, educators, writers and activists, we can use our voices to create positive change and accelerate inclusion and diversity in travel.  We welcome and invite submissions from all women to join our Women’s Speaker’s Bureau and invite those planning events, conferences and webinars to include women. Together, we can make a difference.
