Forum Dvorah's Expert Roster

We have become accustomed to the fact that women are routinely excluded from public discourse on security and political issues - one of the goals of the Deborah Forum is to change this reality. The Deborah Forum's pool of expertise promotes the presence of women who engage in the forum's core areas in professional panels, conferences, media interviews, articles, and as commentators.

We would be happy to help and connect you with experts
