GENDER PARITY & INCLUSION

We are a global initiative with the largest professional and social network changing the trajectory of womanhood for all Ghanaian women in Ghana and the diaspora.We aim to create an environment that promotes and supports women’s rights and opportunities to achieve equal representation in all spheres of national development and interest. By becoming a catalyst creator for women’s development, our goal is to give women access to people, resources and information in various fields both professionally and socially to enable them to achieve these goals. Our overall focus and goal seeks to increase representation across various social, career and leadership areas of women in a sustainable manner through networking, mentorship, shared information and training.

Our goal seeks to work in 3 areas over the next 5 years.

Gender Rights: We aim to help create an environment that promotes and supports women’s rights and opportunities. We will be focusing on policy advocacy, training and education and support for gender violence against women (In the forms of Child marriages, Domestic and sexual abuse, Laws).

Economic Empowerment of Women: By becoming a catalyst for women’s development, our goal is to give women access to people, resources and information in the areas of Financial Literacy, Bookkeeping and other fields to bridge the poverty gap and also provide financial freedom for women.

Girl Child Education: Our overall focus is on the participation of young girls and women in STEM and TVET Education. . We seek to increase representation and participation of women in STEM in secondary and tertiary education as well as increased employment in and technical jobs. We also seek to encourage females in the areas of Coding, Robotics, Artificial Intelligence, Automations, Cyber Security. Technical and vocational education and training (TVET) has the potential to promote the productive participation of women in the labour market, equipping them with the necessary skills to undertake the jobs of the future. However, this potential remains largely unfulfilled in certain occupational sectors, particularly those requiring training in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). In the majority of developing countries, women are much less likely than men to enroll in TVET, with even lower enrolment numbers in STEM fields.–
