Join the First Lady of Iceland and co-founder of the Iceland Writers Retreat, Eliza Reid, as she discusses her critically acclaimed book Secrets of the Sprakkar. Sprakkar is an old Icelandic word that translates to outstanding women. Reid will discuss Iceland’s attitude towards gender equality and why Iceland has topped the World Economic Forum’s Global Gender Gap Index for the past 13 years. She shares some of the inspiring stories of the women she spoke to for her book. She reflects on what we can all do in our lives to improve equality and equity for all and the areas where Iceland still has work left to do.
