The summit recognizes serving and past women presidents and prime ministers in Africa<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

African Development Bank Group (AfDB.org<\/a>) President Dr. Akinwumi A. Adesina told women at a conference in Pretoria on Wednesday that they are part of a revolution that is building across Africa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The head of Africa\u2019s premier development lending institution was speaking at the virtual Women Heads of State Initiative (bit.ly\/37X6PPD<\/a>), a new cross-media initiative organized by Africa.com<\/a> in partnership with Coca Cola Africa. The summit recognizes serving and past women presidents and prime ministers in Africa. One of its highlights is strengthening capacity for emerging female leaders on the continent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 Adesina lauded the accomplishments of women in Africa. He said that unlike women in other parts of the world who have had to break through glass ceilings, \u201cwomen in Africa have had to break through male-dominated concrete ceilings.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The African Development Bank Group President said the recent virtual Africa Investment Forum boardrooms (bit.ly\/3JDhD3k<\/a>)\u2014an initiative of the Bank Group and other founding partners\u2014attracted $32.8 billion in investment interests, including $5 billion for women-run businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Women Heads of State Initiative featured other speakers, including Yvonne Aki-Sawyerr, OBE, the Mayor of Freetown, Sierra Leone; Vera Songwe; United Nations Under-Secretary-General and Executive Secretary of the Economic Commission for Africa; Wanjira Mathai, Vice President & Regional Director for Africa of the World Resources Institute; Mausi Segun, Executive Director of Human Rights Watch\u2019s Africa division; and Kuseni Dlamini, Chairman of Aspen Pharmacare and Massmart Holdings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Issues discussed included women in leadership and business, climate change, vaccine manufacturing and water security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The conference also honored the 22 women who had served an African country as president or prime minister. Special guests included Prime Minister Saara Kuugongelwa-Amadhila of Namibia; Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, the former President of Liberia; Ameenah Gurib-Fakim, the former President of Mauritius; and Joyce Banda, the former President of Malawi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As women leaders, we need to look at our own laws, and our own policies<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Addressing the topic of food security, Adesina decried the obstacles that women encounter across the continent. He underscored challenges, including women\u2019s lack of access to land, extension services and finance\u2014even though women make up more than 60% of Africa\u2019s smallholder farming community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cA revolution is building,\u201d Adesina said, while highlighting the African Development Bank Group\u2019s Affirmative Finance Action for Women in Africa (AFAWA) (bit.ly\/3IB4uX2<\/a>) initiative. The program disbursed $450 million in 2021 for financial institutions to lend to women-led businesses. In 2022, Adesina added, the African Development Bank will disburse $500 million to women-led businesses. He further explained that women in business faced a $42 billion finance gap in Africa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWomen must go beyond primary farm production,\u201d Adesina said. \u201cThey must also dominate agro-processing value chains, where most of the wealth is generated.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

President Banda shared concerns about the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on women\u2019s progress. She said the pandemic had deepened poverty levels and led to thousands of girls dropping out of school. She added that she was, however, heartened by the African Development Bank chief\u2019s update on his institution\u2019s women-centered programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Banda said: \u201cThe organizations supporting women in agriculture are really struggling \u2026 Malawian women farmers need help and need help now. There have been years when they have lost all their yields due to lack of markets. Yet those companies that might help them to raise finance don\u2019t turn up.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

President Johnson Sirleaf was emphatic about Africa\u2019s prospects, which she said were boosted by an increasingly youthful population. She called for policies that would focus on marginalized women. \u201cAs women leaders, we need to look at our own laws, and our own policies, and see: Are they conducive to promoting those women who are at the levels where you may consider them disadvantaged?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both Banda and Johnson Sirleaf shared plans to uplift women through their respective foundations. This included an upcoming conference in Malawi, which will address funding for women-headed organizations, among other issues. President Banda said only 1% of gender funding goes to organizations headed by women.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Women\u2019s Head of State Summit was convened following the 2021 UN-organized Generation Equality Forum held in Paris.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
