How can women leaders wield influence and boost women’s partici- pation in strategic roles? HE Marième Faye Sall, HE Dr Ameenah Gurib-Fakim, First Lady of Senegal President, Republic of Mauritius HE Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, HE Saara Kuugongelwa, President of Liberia Prime Minister of Namibia Dr Mahawa Kaba Wheeler, Thuli Madonsela, Director for Women, Gender and Development, former Public Protector, South Africa African Union, Guinea Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka, Fadumo Deeqo Dayib, Somali politician, first Executive Director, UN Women, South Africa woman to run for President of Somalia Moderator: Amadou Mahtar Ba, UN High-Level Women’s Empowerment Panel, Senegal #changingthegame 10.00 – 11.00 Women in Business: Boosting Confidence, Realising Potential PANEL Studies show that confidence, leadership and gender equality are undeniably linked. The KPMG Women’s DISCUSSION Leadership Study states that lack of confidence is a primary reason why there are so few women in the C-suite. This panel discussion will dissect how women, and their male allies, can promote women’s interests and make them shift from aspiring to embracing their full leadership potential. Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka, Divine Ndhlukula, Executive Director, UN Women, South Africa Founder, Securico, Zimbabwe Claire Akamanzi, HE Dr Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma, Chief Executive Officer, Rwanda Development Outgoing Chairperson, African Union Commission, Board, Rwanda South Africa Louisa Mojela, Cecilia Akintomide, CEO and Founding Member, Women Former Secretary General, African Development Investment Portfolio Holdings, South Africa Bank, Nigeria Amina J.

Although African wom- DISCUSSION en are powerful voices, succeeding in this field, from a career perspective, can truly be challenging. Underrepresentation, discrimination and a corporate culture steeped in male influence often limit women’s professional growth in the sector. Investing in education, access to technology and digital entrepreneurship are also key issues that will be discussed throughout this session.

But the best level in the world is in South Afri- ca, where women hold just over 21% of senior executive positions. The major role of women in the industry workforce, which is some 40–50% in artisanal and small-scale mining, is under-reported. Despite all the work done over the years in making the industry more gender-responsive in Africa, women still face massive challenges: lack of mentorship and career guidance, lack of workplace sup- port, hygiene facilities and safety. What is the way forward?

Evidence shows that when women have the DISCUSSION same land rights, incentives and means of production as men, there is over 10% increase in crop yields. There is also a great possibility of guaranteed food sufficiency and security. How can we capi- talise on the exceptional productive potential of women as a key driver for agricultural growth? What are the gender-responsive strategies and interventions that favourably impact the sector?

DISCUSSION One of the biggest challenges to improving women’s health globally is the supply chain for essential health products. How can policy makers and the different stakeholders increase financial commit- ments, develop strong supply chains and the adequate supportive environments to improve women’s health across the continent?

Will Africa take its fair share in this phenomenal outlook and help resurrect its largely collapsed textile industry? In its Fashionomics report, the African Development Bank revealed that fashion is big business in Africa and needs support. How can that be leveraged? And how can Africa create sustainable fashion industry that and empower women beyond the apparels?

    15 YEAR OLD FILM MAKER ZURIEL ODUWOLE VISITS THE RON CLARK ACADEMY On January 6th 2017, the US Secretary of State honored then 14 year old Zuriel Oduwole at the State Department in Washington DC, for her work across the globe advocating tirelessly for Girls Education. She was also commended for teaching young women across Africa a basic film making class, so they can tell their own stories. This was a culmination of her work since the age of 9, when she made her first film, a documentary about the Ghana Revolution as part of a History Channel sponsored event, and since the age of 10, when she founded her Dream Up, Speak Up, Stand Up [DUSUSU] project – to advocate for Girls Education across the globe. The Ron Clark Academy in Atlanta, which itself is pioneering the way education is delivered to students in America, welcomed Zuriel to their school on March 6th. The schools last major speaker was Oprah Winfrey. An inspiration to many children around the globe, the students, teachers and founders of the school listened to 15 year old Zuriel Oduwole talk about her remarkable journey, which has taken her to 13 countries to speak to more than 25,760 youths about the importance and power of a good Education. Along the way on her journey, Zuriel has met one-on-one with 24 Presidents and Heads of State, to talk about pertinent development issues, including the need for policies that keeps girls in school till at least the age of 18, so they have more options in life and do not get married young.

  • UNESCO's Soft Power Today Fostering Women's Empowerment and Leadership
    UNESCO’s Soft Power Today Fostering Women’s Empowerment and Leadership 30 June – 9 a.m.-6 p.m. The High-level Conference will include six panels, three parallels panels in the morning and the afternoon, lasting two hours each. The panels will discuss various aspects of the importance of gender equality and the empowerment and leadership of women and girls. 11:00 – 13:00 | Morning sessions "Women’s Empowerment and Sustainable Development - The Power of Women’s and Girls’ Education" "Breaking Gender Stereotypes - The importance of role models in changing cultural norms" "Leadership and Power - Women in Politics" 14:30 – 16:30 | Afternoon sessions "Women’s Empowerment and Sustainable Development - Women, Peace and Security" "Breaking Gender Stereotypes - Challenging the status quo" "Leadership and Power - Women in Business" I. Women’s Empowerment and Sustainable Development: The Power of Women’s and Girls’ education Despite immense progress in achieving gender parity in primary education, numerous challenges remain for girls to access, complete and benefit from a full cycle of quality education. While poverty remains the main barrier, discriminatory social norms (such as early marriage or gender-based violence), the distance between the home and the school and related safety concerns, or inadequate sanitation facilities at school are among the many factors hampering girls’ participation in and completion of a full cycle of education. In addition, girls are disadvantaged in terms of learning processes and outcomes. Yet, evidence also shows that an educated girl can be a powerful game changer for her, her family, community and society. This panel will discuss the importance of achieving gender equality in education.
