CEDPA believes women can change the world.
Over the past 35 years, CEDPA has trained more than 5,000 women and men from Albania to Zambia. These individuals, our alumni, have gone on to head government ministries, serve as members of parliament, and become elected to the highest levels of public office. They have proven the power of women's leadership to change the world.
In 2010, CEDPA's 35th anniversary, we will introduce to 35 of our amazing women leaders. Read on to meet them. |
