Building a Supportive Ecosystem for Women Researchers - Issue #3 Newsletter
It has been one month since we launched the Status of African Women in Research report, and the response has been phenomenal.
The demand for insights into the research landscape for African women is clear, with many development organisations reaching out to Mawazo for further conversations on women’s status and potential solutions.
The report has also facilitated collaboration among like-minded organisations, evident from invitations to co-design impactful conferences, and lead conversations at events such as at The Times Higher Education’s Africa Universities in Kigali, a validation workshop for the National Gender in Education Sector Policy in Nairobi, and the Early Career Ocean Professionals (ECOP) webinar that targeted a global audience.
Power, Progress and Possibilities - Issue #2 Newsletter
This year’s International Women’s Day featured the launch of the “Status of African Women in Research” report by the Mawazo Institute, which took place on March 6th 2025, at the United States International University - Africa (USIU). This event not only marked the launch of a significant report but also sparked a renewed commitment to advancing the status of women in research across Africa and accelerating action toward this goal!
