Centre for Gender Equity Mentorship Program

This is a pioneering one-year program launched by the Center of Gender Equity in 2020 to provide a transformative mentorship experience in Africa for early-career, female global health professionals. Mentees from the past 4 cohorts have reported gaining critical skills in leadership and benefiting from tailored training in career management, decision-making, and work-life balance, to name a few. At times, mentors have also tapped into their own networks or connections to support mentees’ projects.
