Participation & Decision-making
Lowering barriers women face in leadership through advocacy, policymaking and capacity-building for effective leadership.
Women in Nigeria and Africa face barriers to leadership in all spheres, from politics and business to community and family. Cultural norms, social limitations, and economic challenges contribute to this disparity.
At HACEY, our initiatives tackle this issue by promoting women’s representation in leadership positions and decision-making processes.
We advocate for effective implementation of gender quotas in politics, ensuring diverse perspectives and inclusive governance. We also provide targeted support to young women, including mentoring and training, to build their leadership skills and confidence. By creating a pipeline of empowered female leaders, we aim to achieve gender equality at all levels of society.
