I believe the future of Africa is female (2018).
In Africa there is a myth that women are just doing simple grassroots work. What you fail to realize is that this is powerful work that is keeping the fabric of communities together. There is no sustainable development in the absence of peace. Africa must ensure that conflict and post conflict interventions are part of development… Unleashing the power of ‘underrated’ women will ultimately help transform the continent. – Nobel Peace Prize Co-Laureate (2018) – Leymah Gbowee
