On 8 March 2012, EIGE launches a new call for nominations to the Women of Europe resource pool and EIGE’s "Women Inspiring Europe" Calendar 2013.

In 2010 on 8 March, the Institute started collecting nominations for the Women of Europe resource pool which is used to highlight women’s achievements and success stories. Inspiring experiences and stories of women from this pool are published on EIGE’s website weekly (http://www.eige.europa.eu/content/women-inspiring-europe).

Selected women who display outstanding experiences and achievements are chosen to be portrayed in EIGE’s annual “Women Inspiring Europe” calendar.

For each nominee a short biography and a photo should be sent to EIGE. Preferably, a written agreement should accompany the nomination, allowing EIGE use of their data in the event it should need to be made public (e.g. on EIGE’s website, in social media or in EIGE’s Calendar 2013).

While nominations for EIGE’s resource pool are received all year round, Calendar candidates for 2013 need to be submitted before 1 June 2012.

To nominate a Woman Inspiring Europe please use the nomination form available at http://www.eige.europa.eu/content/form/women-inspiring-europe-nomin....

We look forward to your nominations before the deadline 1 June 2012!
