Artificial intelligence is on everyone’s lips—it can inspire us and frighten us. It offers opportunities, but it also carries risks. How can we, as women*, take action to ensure that AI serves us, does not marginalize us, and allows us to help shape it ourselves? You can explore all these aspects in this issue of our newsletter.
“The future shouldn’t be feared—it should open up opportunities,” says Ipek Wagener, the subject of our cover story. The futurist explains how she approaches the opportunities and risks of the future.
You’ll also find, among other things, the following articles:
We Must View the Female Body as the Norm—the Gender Medicine Working Group of BPW Switzerland
We also bid farewell to Sandra Jauslin as co-president of BPW Switzerland through an in-depth interview.
For eight years, she served with tremendous dedication on our association’s board and launched, revitalized, and advanced numerous projects.
We also look back on numerous notable events at the national and international levels.
In the second part of the magazine, our BPW Clubs share their stories and highlight the key moments in their Club’s life over the past year. The Central Committee’s annual report is, of course, also included.
Artificial intelligence, with all its opportunities and challenges, will be a pervasive theme in the coming years. For BPW Switzerland, this magazine can therefore only serve as a starting point for in-depth reflection on the subject. The Central Committee and the Central Office are therefore preparing a series of webinars for interested members. You are warmly invited to participate, share your expertise, and learn from the speakers as well as from one another.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who contributed to the production of the Courrier. A big thank you to editor Kathia Baltisberger and graphic designer Ines Senger for their excellent collaboration!
