We must identify and support potential women leaders and showcase the achievements of those who have come before. The fact that there haven’t been as many women leaders as the world might wish is a reason to highlight the ways women in leadership advance society. Together we will shape women to lead beyond borders,” – Professor Naana Opoku-Agyemang

“The forum underscored the urgent need to champion and elevate the role of women across the continent,” remarked Prof. Opoku-Agyemang. “It is through such fora that we can inspire, empower, and mobilize women leaders to make a lasting impact beyond borders.”
