Citizen Airmen Play Pivotal Role in Women’s Air and Space Symposium

WASHINGTON D.C. --  

The third annual Department of the Air Force Women's Air and Space Symposium was held in March and was led by Citizen Airmen.

The symposium brought together service members, civilians and family members from across the Department of Defense to a forum that increased awareness, provided inspiration and tools to accelerate change, and highlighted wins and opportunities for airmen, guardians and civilians.

The Secretary of the Air Force Diversity and Inclusion Office has three people working there. They brought together the team in collaboration with the 2 nd Audiovisual Squadron from Hill Air Force Base, Utah, for full production of the three-day symposium.

The feedback was positive and we are excited to have reached so many people. We were inspired by people who were motivated by the event to join the military.

The team created a new WASPS logo.

Rivera said it was an honor to support WASPS. The impact women are having in the Air and Space realm makes me happy.

Powered by 71 volunteers from across the DoD, WASPS exceeded expectations by logging more than 18,000 viewers each day. The event sparked an ongoing dialogue that continued months after the event. 

The Department of the Air Force said that the three-day event was focused on removing barriers that still exist for women and minorities who serve and increasing awareness and building leaders armed for action. Thanks for a great job.

The dedication of our Reserve Citizen Airmen created an enduring platform to drive meaningful change across our enterprise.

Future access and opportunities to share were ensured by recording the symposium. The links below show each day in its entirety. There will be a call for volunteers in the near future.
