Maureen Maguire, who is UNA-NI’s Honorary Secretary, has been elected as Soroptimist International (SI) President Elect
2020 - 2021. On behalf of UNA-NI’s members and supporters, we offer congratulations to Maureen, who will take up her position as SI President on 01 January 2022 until 31 December 2023.
Maureen believes that education and training is essential to achieve gender equality – empowering women and girls to be change leaders, and contribute to and benefit from an inclusive and sustainable future. Her mantra is ‘If you Educate a Woman, you not only Educate her Family but also her Community.’
Maureen explains, “My wish for the future is to ‘Press for Progress’
on education and training, and I am determined to ‘Seize every Opportunity’ to highlight the importance of education during my time at Soroptimist International.”
We on the Committee of UNA-NI believe that her mantra sits strongly with UNA and we wish her well in her endeavours.
