Widows as decision-makers: a positive role model

The aim of this interactive event is to highlight the role of widows as positive agents of change within their communities. We look forward to hearing different perspectives of how to enable widows to assume decision making roles and to share examples of best practice. We hope the event will give inspiration and provide an example of the importance of highlighting the contribution of widows to society.
