Application Deadline: 31 January 2025, by 11:59 p.m. WAT

LOCATION: Nigeria

WomenLift Health, in partnership with the Women In Leadership Advancement Network (WILAN), is launching the inaugural Nigeria Leadership Journey.

In this fully funded, 12-month Leadership Journey, they provide mid-career women with the safe space to explore their authentic leadership through vulnerability and reflection, an inclusive and diverse network that fosters a strong sense of belonging and tools and strategies for enhancing their voice, presence, and influence—all the while being supported by a powerful group of peers, mentors, and coaches.

ELIGIBILITY:

You are eligible for consideration if you meet all of the following criteria:

Identify as a woman

Work in a role that focuses on public health policy, practice, and/or research (your work and partnerships serve populations at the national level in Nigeria and may include practicing public health in hospitals and health centers, producing research and innovation, creating or implementing policy, and managing teams/departments or projects/grants.)

Mid-Career Leader: Possess sufficient years (10 – 20 years) of experience in public health

Reside and work within Nigeria

Must be a national of Nigeria

Possess fluency and ease in written and verbal communication in English to express the next level of emotional processing required for the Journey

We require participants to be living in the West Africa Standard Time for at least 75% of the program as we believe time zone compatibility is essential to your ability to participate at the touchpoints and to engage with your peers within and outside of the sessions. WomenLift Health is committed to selecting diverse cohort members, representing different sectors (public, private, academia, NGO, philanthropy, research and development), disciplines, and cultural backgrounds.

BENEFIT:

Fully funded

Cost: Free (all program costs, including travel and lodging, are covered)
