If we must celebrate a day for women, let us celebrate freedom from stereotypes: ~ Stop congratulating women for being the secret behind a successful man... Start saluting them for their own success. ~Stop saying the mother is sacred for all the sacrifices she makes... Try to reduce the need for those sacrifices! ~Stop telling women they are beautiful... *Try telling them it's not important to be beautiful!* 2 Stop praising her roles as mother, wife, daughter, sister... Celebrate her as an individual, a person, independent of relationships. ~ Stop justifying her necessity to multi task..... Try to make her life easy Stop making her strive for an impossible balance. Just let her be imperfect... And happy! *A very happy women's day to the wonderful women *

Empowering Girls in Waru: Global Girls Leadership Initiative – Session 2 Recap On Saturday, 21st September, we hosted the second session of our Global Girls Leadership Initiative in the Waru community. This session centered on the theme of community and its various structures, offering the girls a chance to reflect on the roles and dynamics within their local environment.The session was highly interactive, encouraging the girls to explore five key areas of their community: 1.Home – The girls shared insights into their families, discussing the roles and responsibilities within their households. They explored the similarities and differences between families in their community. 2.Religion – They identified the diverse religious practices in their community, gaining a better understanding of the beliefs that shape their environment. 3.Leadership – The girls learned about the various leadership roles within Waru, such as the king, youth leader, and women leader. They explored the responsibilities that come with each position, fostering a deeper appreciation for community governance. 4.Social – The girls examined how different members of their community, including men, women, and children, relax and spend their leisure time, highlighting gender and age-based differences. 5.Work – They also discussed the various occupations in Waru, such as farming and trading, understanding how these roles contribute to the community’s economy. Throughout the session, the girls actively engaged in discussions, gaining a deeper understanding of their community's structure. By the end of the day, they had developed a visual representation of their community's layers, illustrating key elements they appreciate as well as those they would like to see improved. This session was a significant milestone in our journey to empower girls in the Waru community. The girls not only learned about their community but also began to see their own roles and responsibilities in shaping it. We’re excited to build on this foundation in future sessions as we continue to foster leadership, critical thinking, and empowerment among these young women.Stay tuned for more updates as we progress in this transformative journey with the Global Girls Leadership Initiative! #GirlsEmpowerment #CommunityLeadership #SEGEI #GlobalGirlsLeadershipInitiative

As a business where women make up the majority of our leadership positions, Almora Advisors supports Women's History Month and efforts to change the landscape in nonprofit leadership opportunities for women. This fascinating piece linked below by AAUW (American Association of University Women) reflects major issues in nonprofit leadership, such as the startling fact that while women make up 75% of jobs in nonprofit organizations, they make up just 22% of chief executive roles at nonprofits with annual budgets of at least $50 million. We highly encourage you to read this summary and view the full report to learn more about how nonprofits can do more to help women succeed as leaders. #womenempowerment #womenshistorymonth #nonprofitorganization #womeninbusiness #nonprofitleadership

Breaking the barriers of women’s political leadership and active participation in decision-making is paramount for inclusive governance. Tomorrow, I’ll be facilitating a session at a one-day capacity-building training organized by Breaking the Barriers, supported by Yiaga Africa & UK Int’l Development. It’s crucial to empower women with the skills and knowledge needed to navigate political spaces effectively. By providing this training, we aim to inspire and equip women to take on leadership roles, challenge stereotypes, and contribute meaningfully to shaping our collective future. Together, we can create a more inclusive and representative political landscape. #YLA #He4She
