Akinyi Roselyn Walender

Africa Director, Practical Action

Gender Equality is a fundamental right. Society can only be richer and progressive when we break through systemic barriers that hinder equality and women empowerment.

I support the IGC Panel Parity Pledge.

I support the IGC gender-based violence pledge.

I commit to running a campaign aimed at raising awareness and fostering dialogue on gender-based violence.

I commit to actively engage in or lead at least one external event to emphasize the critical role of gender-responsive climate action.
