Women have been marginalized in the development of our communities since time in memorial. We forget that the most effective tool for development in society is the empowerment of women, hence Glitz Africa’s initiative to celebrate outstanding women who in their own ways and expertise use their positions and influences to make a difference in the society and also inspire others to improve their well-being and lifestyle.
The Women of the Year initiative will also support maternal health in Ghana by creating awareness. This will be a three days event which will take place in May. The first two days will be a conference dubbed “She Summit” and the third day will begin with a walk for all women and end with an awards gala honouring women who have excelled in various fields.
