Women, Development, and Advocacy Roundtable (WODAR)

In honor of Women’s History Month, the Women, Development, and Advocacy Roundtable (WODAR) is a collaborative initiative aimed at deepening our understanding of the challenges faced by women in Africa, specifically within the scope of development and advocacy. By convening a diverse group of perspectives, the Lady Dynamique Network strives not only to highlight existing obstacles but also to identify actionable solutions and opportunities for positive change in areas of women’s development.

The roundtable serves as a safe and inclusive space for meaningful conversations, recognizing the diverse experiences and perspectives of women across Africa. Through open dialogue, our goal is to create a nuanced understanding of the multifaceted challenges hindering women’s full participation in development initiatives.

2. Expert Insights

Featuring distinguished speakers and panelists, each roundtable promises a wealth of expertise and insights. These contributions will deepen our understanding of the role women can play in driving sustainable development and advocacy efforts.

3. Collaborative Strategies

Beyond talking, W0DAR is a place to research and work together. We’ll discuss new ideas, policies, and practices to create positive change for women in development.

4. Inspiration for Action

WODAR aims to inspire participants by telling stories, best practices, and the achievements of women leaders. Through this, we hope to encourage a ripple effect that extends beyond the virtual roundtable, enhancing tangible improvements for women in development.

The “Women, Development, and Advocacy Roundtable” is a catalyst for change. Its mission is to mobilize support, influence policy, and empower women to emerge as effective leaders in the development sectors. Through collaborative efforts and shared commitments, this initiative aspires to contribute to a more equitable and prosperous future for women across the African continent.
