OFFICIAL INVITATION & PROGRAM

Global Goals World Cup Finals Iceland 2021

November 7 to November 10

Dear Global Goals Advocate,

We are excited to welcome you to the sixth Global Goals World Cup Finals.

EIR normally hosts its annual GGGWCUP Finals during the Global Goals Week in September alongside the United Nations General Assembly. But this year is different—and we are honored to host this year’s Finals in one of the world's most gender equal countries; Iceland.

Alongside matches and talks we will celebrate how women are uniting around the world for the Global Goals and laying the ground for a more just future for all. Please note, the program might be subject to chance.

You will meet and get to know the participating GGWCUP teams, meet the panel speakers and the coming GGWCUP country hosts from Norway, Colombia, Morocco, Saudi Arabia, Denmark and Jordan.

We committed to closing the Play Gap, advancing gender equality and the UN Global Goals in every country we play.

Thank you for playing your part.
