Redefining Work: Gifts, not money only, for Women's Empowerment in Africa As a gender specialist leading a non-profit, I constantly encounter a critical question: how do you empower a woman who has faced immense hardship, now raising her children, without immediate financial promises or equipment donations? Through experience, we've discovered a powerful solution: the "gift-centered approach." We guide women and young girls in discovering their unique talents and how these gifts can positively impact themselves, their families, and their communities. Our organization has demonstrated the ability to achieve impactful outcomes even when working with women from diverse educational backgrounds Our African communities often expect individuals to simply accept whatever work they find, neglecting the importance of self-discovery and purpose. Though we all know that real sucess comes from that alignment. As changemakers, I believe we must champion a new vision of education and work. Real education and personal development should not remain in limited access for a few people. This is especially crucial for women and girls who have overcome significant obstacles and are still living in poverty. As we continue to refine our advocacy efforts, we aim to secure increased donor support for personal development initiatives alongside existing education and income-generating activities. Happy belated workers day LTL #GiftCenteredWomenEmpowerment #WomenAndWork #SustainableDevelopmentGoals #EmpoweringCommunities
