The Ethiopian Chapter of the African Women Leaders Network (AWLN) is launched on Monday at an event attended by United Nations Deputy Secretary-General Amina J. Mohammed, President of Ethiopia, Sahle-Work Zewde.'

President Zewde said the launch of the chapter was a major milestone that will benefit all Ethiopian women and ensure their voice is better heard and their issues better addressed.

“We now have the Ethiopian Chapter of the AWLN which will contribute to ensuring there is financial inclusion in the country. It will empower rural women, mentor young women, and achieve gender equality. We have to achieve the Africa We Want, where women have the same economic, political and social rights as men,” she said.

President Zewde underscored that achieving gender equality calls for strong political will, which while can bring about miracles, would need to be sustained.

“On the continent we are still very far away from achieving gender parity. We must build on the positive strides that we are making today to achieve that,” she added.
