Why should we only talk in March about Women Empowerment?
The topic need to be addressed until we have changes.
Go Ahead Business Women Empowerment together with “Alpha Woman” and Partners invite you to join our Online Session.
Our workshop is dedicated to helping you see your potential and motivate yourself through women who are overcoming obstacles and making a difference in the society.
Women make up half of the global population and deserve equal rights and opportunities.
We believe that Empowering women ensures fairness and justice in society.
By promoting gender equality, we create a more inclusive society where individuals are valued for their abilities rather than their gender.
Gender equality is not just a moral imperative but also a key component of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Empowering women is critical for achieving goals related to poverty reduction, education, health, and economic growth.
When women are empowered economically, they contribute to household income,
Gain insights and inspiration from successful women leaders who will share their personal stories and strategies for success.
Who Should Attend:
This workshop is open to all (women/men), of all ages and backgrounds, who want to know more about the women empowerment / gender equality topics in order to further break down barriers and create positive changes in society.
