The President, African Women in Leadership Organisation (AWLO), Dr. Elisha Attai has said that gender equality as lately discovered is not just a women issue but also a human issue. He added that having realised these fact, men are beginning to pull resources to sustain the move and advised women to double their efforts in giving the required support.
Dr. Elisha Attai, who is an ardent advocate for the development and advancement of the African Woman, is the initiator and convener of the African Women in leadership conference, a global movement of women of African descent changing the narrative of leadership in the world.
“We employed men to give women more opportunities, and this has proved that achieving the gender equality goal before 2095 as stipulated is possible,” he added.
According to the United Nations (UN) Women, gender equality is the fifth Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), which seeks to address key challenges such as poverty, inequality, and violence against women and girls.
