“The Pan African Women in Health is a great initiative paving the way for the Africa We Want. I believe that through this initiative, we can improve health education opportunities for girls across the continent, mentor them throughout their health education and blooming career. Moreover, this initiative can help us, mid-career professionals, break the glass ceiling. It is a multi-pronged approach based on sisterhood and self-fulfilment through professional development.”
Creating platforms for dialogues and networks. Building the next generation of women leaders.
