For centuries, the question of "women's roles" has

For centuries, the question of "women's roles" has been a source of societal debate. Traditionally, these roles have been largely defined by biology and cultural norms.

But instead of continuously framing the discourse around predefined roles, can we shift the focus to the undeniable reality: of women as key players and stakeholders of a thriving society?

@melindafrenchgates conversation exemplifies the need to redefine women's roles.

We want to hear from you.

What are your thoughts and experiences on the role of women in society?

For decades, economic growth has been the primary

For decades, economic growth has been the primary yardstick for measuring progress in Africa. Yet, a critical factor often goes overlooked: the role of women in leadership. A new narrative is emerging, suggesting a powerful link between gender equality and sustainable development.

This isn't simply speculation. Data paints a vivid picture – nations with higher female representation in government are experiencing significant economic leaps in various indices. But the impact extends far beyond the bottom line.

At the 2024 Forbes Woman Africa Leading Women Summ

At the 2024 Forbes Woman Africa Leading Women Summit in Johannesburg, Zuriel Oduwole, a renowned filmmaker and advocate for girls' education, delivered a compelling speech titled "We Are Subjects of Excellence."

In her address, Oduwole challenged the prevailing perception of women as mere objects, advocating instead for a recognition of their inherent excellence.

Oduwole, who was also honoured with the 2024 Forbes Women Achievement Award, critiqued the conventional definition of beauty as dictated by external standards. She urged women to develop a deep-seated sense of self-worth and to recognize the unique value they contribute to their various spheres of influence.

Her speech emphasized that excellence is not an uttainable ideal but a deliberate choice.

Oduwole's message is a clarion call for a reevaluation of what it means to be a woman, urging a shift towards a narrative of empowerment and excellence.
