Why is African Women In Security important?

African Women In Security is important for several reasons. First, it provides a much-needed platform for the voices of African women in security. These women have long been underrepresented in the field, and their perspectives are essential to understanding the challenges and opportunities facing Africa today.

Second, African Women In Security showcases the leadership and impact of women in security. These women are role models for young women and girls across Africa, and their stories demonstrate that women can and do make a difference in the world.

Finally, African Women In Security is a call to action. It challenges us all to do more to support women in security and to create a more inclusive and equitable field.
