For #InternationalWomensDay here is our latest blog post about supporting gender equity within our higher education work in Sierra Leone. #SPHEIR aqhedsl.medium.com/gender-eq…
The theme for this #InternationalWomensDay is Women in Leadership, like Yeanoh. Read about her involvement with the INGENAES project and how she encourages the next generation of women to be part of this work. Read more: bit.ly/2CcW8pl #InternationalWomensDay

Investing in rural women’s leadership is critical.
