NEWA Conducts Training on Transformative Leadership and Gender Equality!

NEWA has successfully organized a three-day capacity-building training on “Transformative Leadership and Gender Equality” with the generous financial support of CST Ethiopia. The training took place from 02–04 October 2025 at Adulala Resort, Bishoftu and brought together 23 participants (18 women, 5 men, and 4 persons with disabilities), including management team members from various women’s rights organizations.

The training aimed to enhance participants’ knowledge, skills, and leadership capacity in advancing gender equality and women’s empowerment. Throughout the three days, participants engaged in interactive sessions that covered a range of topics, including leadership and management fundamentals, productivity and development, gender equality and equity, intersectionality in practice, and organizational leadership and internal practices.
The session also explored practical strategies for mainstreaming gender and empowering women within women’s rights organizations to ensure gender equality, equity, and inclusion.
NEWA sincerely appreciates CST Ethiopia for its valuable partnership and support, and extends heartfelt thanks to all participants for their active engagement and commitment.
Together, we continue to foster transformative leadership that drives lasting progress toward gender equality and inclusive development.
