Dr. Philipp emphasized the progress made by the Indian diplomacy and said "We'll sit down with several female ambassadors and we will discuss how to better include women and minorities in diplomacy. I think we can learn a lot from many other countries. Germany is trying hard to get more women to be more inclusive in its foreign policy."

In order to improve gender equality in diplomacy, both nations should collaborate diligently.
