When Women Win (WWW) has announced that award winning Architect, Entrepreneur and Philanthropist Jumoke Adenowo, the U.S. Consulate’s Head of Public Affairs, Darcy Zotter and the South African Director of the Global Women’s Initiative, Tumi Frazier will be headlining its debut When Women Win Experience scheduled to take place on Friday, the 9th of March, 2018 simultaneously at the Oriental Hotel in Victoria Island, Lagos and the CBN Training Institute, Abuja.
When Women Win (WWW) is a new initiative set to be a platform to enable women; helping them discover themselves, be motivated and coached to reach their maximum potential while also celebrating and advocating for women. The upcoming 2018 When Women Win Experience which holds the week of International Women’s Day, will also be the official launch of the initiative in Africa.
The United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 5 speaks of empowering women and achieving equality as key to the development of Africa. The issue of inequality cuts across all sectors of the society including education, politics and governance. This is evidenced by the fact that although women make up 49.6% of the world’s population, female world leaders/presidents are less than 10% of recognized world leaders.
When Women Win (WWW) is set to address this challenge by providing affordable access for women to the knowledge, inspiration and opportunities they need to rise above any challenges or limitations, reach for their dreams and succeed in whatever field they want to. The core principle behind this is that when more women are empowered, they can become better contributors to our economic development.
“When Women Win, Families win, Communities win, Corporations win and ultimately the Nation wins.” – Tumi Frazier, South African Director, Global Women’s Initiative.
At the 2018 When Women Win Experience, themed Reach for the Stars, speakers and performers from across Africa will inspire and teach participants through talks, music, spoken word, training and coaching classes. Although the event is scheduled to take place in Lagos, it will also be broadcast live to a viewing audience in Abuja. Entry to the event is free.
