Joost d’Hooghe; as a proud parent of two amazing girls this is my favorite action: “DARE TO DREAM: Children from a young age onwards are often confronted with stereotypes. These stereotypes limit their dreams and perspectives. Instead, they should be inspired by role models, their direct environment, even the toys they play with, to enable them to make the choices to shape their future and follow their dreams. Our recommendation is to motivate women to inspire kids, with education, campaigns at all levels, encouragement of girls to become entrepreneurs and innovators. It is important to actively search for role models that are often not visible for kids and bring them inside the schools and in the media. In addition, communication about entrepreneurship and innovation needs to be adapted to kids.”
