Women in Diplomacy: mobility, leadership, and global impact

June 24 — International Day of Women in Diplomacy

June 24 marks the International Day of Women in Diplomacy, declared by the UN to recognize the pivotal role women play in shaping international relations, global peace, and institutional leadership.

At DLF International Movers, we join in celebrating this occasion, reaffirming our commitment to gender equity, female talent, and international mobility as a driver of cooperation and diplomacy.

According to the 2025 report Women in Multilateralism, only 21% of permanent representatives to the UN are women, and since 1947, just 7% of ambassadors globally have been female. While women hold 21% of diplomatic roles worldwide, the figure rises above 30% in Europe—led by nations like Sweden and Finland.

In Spain, female representation continues to grow: 63% of ministerial positions are currently held by women, placing the country among the global leaders in gender parity.

What is DLF doing about it??

At DLF International Movers, we support numerous female diplomats each year with our international moving and corporate relocation services, ensuring:

• Secure, efficient, and confidential operations tailored to diplomatic mobility
• Specialized logistics for sensitive cargo, official documentation, vehicles, and artwork
• Multilingual technology, custom solutions, and premium service for seamless transitions

Let us celebrate gender diplomacy: tradition, experience and commitment that strengthen global cooperation.

At DLF, female leadership is embedded in our identity. Our International Corporate Director, Cristina Mesonero, serves on the Board of Directors of FEDEMAC (European Movers Federation), representing Spain. Her career and strategic vision strengthen DLF’s commitment to diplomatic logistics built on excellence, inclusivity, and a gender-aware approach.
