OUR PURPOSE & VISION
STRATEGIES TO IMPACT
To implement our vision, we have three co-strategies to impact
LEADERSHIP PROGRAM
The one-year transformational WE lead experience is comprised of a range of leadership building opportunities for 20 top level women leaders from Africa each year.
AUTHENTIC STORYTELLING
WE talk binds us to women leaders of diverse sectors, ages, countries, and across triumphs and challenges through authentic storytelling and shared experience.
Part of my plea, as a person who has come from philanthropy for many years is to trust the women of Africa, invest big in them, and think big of them as they think big and they want to do good work. The deeper your investment in people the more you will see impact.
Dr. Musimbi Kanyoro
TRACKING TRANSFORMATION
WE Africa’s “Understanding & Adapting” team is dedicated to monitoring and evaluating WE Africa’s progress toward our mission and vision and providing real time input from coaches, the delivery team and fellows to ensure we co-create.
KEY INSIGHTS
To assess the impact of the program, we employed an Understanding and Adapting process (U&A) which included conducting hour long 1:1 introductory and exit interviews with each WE Fellow supplemented by written feedback from the coaches. Here are some key takeaways.
90% of fellows reported having a better sense of self-awareness at the end of WE Africa than at the beginning.
78% of fellows said they were now more confident in their leadership skills than at the start of the fellowship.
Success rates increased from 40% to 64% of fellows successfully seeking and obtaining opportunities.
