IWD 2023: WOMEN CALLED TO HELP EACH OTHERS.


Women in Menchum Division have been called to support each other in order to grow, to shun fear and take a deep reflection to significantly contribute to end the current anglophone crisis rocking the anglophone regions of Cameroon and Wum  with it. The call was made during the celebration of the 38th International Women Day, with a focus on inclusive digital world, innovation and technologies for gender equality, which highlights the role of innovative technologies in promoting gender equality and meeting the health and development needs of women and girls. Despite the fact that women can be innovators and help transform the health of all people on the continent, much still needs to be done in order to close the digital gender divide, which mainly affects vulnerable women and girls, especially those in rural and remote areas with low levels of education and low socio-economic status.
