Nurturing the Next Generation of
Women Leaders in Africa
WRITTEN BY : KATE BIRCH
The argument for women leaders in Africa is compelling , yet numbers are small . But one female leader is on a mission to change that – meet Awamary Lowe-Khan
The future of African women is bright . This is the opening gambit from seasoned executive and management consulting CEO Awamary Lowe- Khan from her home in The Gambia .
It ’ s a concrete message of positivity and hope for women , but also for Africa , whose economic prospects are looking good right now , but promise to be even better with women as part of the leadership workforce .
And this is the mission that drives the Gambian- Spanish entrepreneur , philanthropist , CEO and mother of two , who has been named one of 35 rising women in Africa by CNBC , and has been directly empowering women and girls in Africa for the last four years through the NGOs she founded in The Gambia – The Woman Boss and Innovate Gambia , the country ’ s first tech hub .
