SUCCESSFUL YEAR 2024

Thank you for your trust and collaboration with ProtocolToday, The Netherlands, in 2024.

 

Dear Friends,

In 2024, we witnessed an extraordinary year filled with innovative ideas and activities to educate and connect people from diverse backgrounds around the globe.

One of our highlights was the international seminar ‘Women as Cultural Ambassadors’ on International Women’s Day. We are proud that we could accommodate a diverse team of inspiring speakers who shared their life experiences with a global audience.

We have extended our team with Elsa Wilkin-Armbrister as our Licensed Practitioner in the United Kingdom. Elsa is a seasoned professional recognised for her expertise in cultural diplomacy, nation branding, international marketing and managing teams at world exhibitions. In addition to the UK, she will also operate in some Caribbean countries.

Our service portfolio, “The Art of Gift Giving”, is fully operational for exclusive professional and private relations gifts. We continue developing unique, designed gifts for our members and communities.

We have formalised our alliance with Fundacion Honoris Causa Internacional, a Mexican FHC Netherland. FHC is a civil association with a citizen and diplomatic committee, foundations, and university academic members.

Another highlight of the year was my membership in the Women’s Empowerment Principles (WEPs), established by UN Women and the UN Global Compact to promote gender equality and women’s empowerment.

We have delivered numerous projects throughout the year, each aimed at enhancing soft skills, obtaining global mindset skills and global connectivity.
