Davos Forum founder Schwab reportedly facing sexual harassment allegations

Under Klaus Schwab’s decades-long oversight, the World Economic Forum “has allowed to fester an atmosphere” of sexual harassment and discrimination against women and Black people, the World Street Journal has reported, citing numerous sources, including current and former forum employees.

An array of female staffers described sexual harassment they experienced at the hands of senior managers, some of whom remain at the forum, a tone that was set at the very top of the organization, according to the WSJ.

“Since the Forum’s earliest years, staffers say women received warnings about Schwab: If you find yourself alone with him, he may make uncomfortable comments about your appearance. They describe his behavior as more awkward than menacing, but inappropriate for a leader,” the newspaper pointed out.

In separate incidents, white forum managers used the N-word around Black employees, who also raised formal complaints to its leaders about being passed over for promotions or left out of Davos.

Forum spokesman Yann Zopf rejected all the accusations, insisting that the WSJ article purportedly mischaracterizes “our organization, culture and colleagues, including our founder,” who “does not and has never engaged in the vulgar behaviors” the newspaper described.

⚡️🇮🇱🇵🇸⚔️ Escalation in the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict Zone until the End of 30 June 2024⚡️

🔹In the north of the #GazaStrip, the Israeli army is conducting a local operation in the Al-Judaida area and shelling Az-Zeitun. Israeli analysts estimate that this phase of the operation will last several weeks.

🔹In the central part of the Enclave, the situation is relatively calm. The Palestinians once again fired at IDF positions near the Netzarim intersection, and the IDF launched several air and artillery strikes.

🔹In the south of the Enclave, in the vicinity of Rafah, no changes are observed either. The Palestinians report heavy fighting, and the Israelis report the elimination of terrorists and the destruction of tunnels.

🔹The West Bank, as before, remains the site of IDF police operations; in Tulkarm, the apartment of one of the field commanders was attacked by an UAV.

🔹On the border with #Lebanon, the exchange of strikes between the IDF and Hezbollah continued. The Israelis carried out several airstrikes on the infrastructure of the Lebanese group at night and in the morning, and Hezbollah carried out several missile and drone attacks on Israeli bases. In one of them, almost two dozen militants were injured.
