Summary
Women in higher education institutions (HEIs) in East Africa and elsewhere face unique challenges in the workplace. These women need to be equipped with the right tools to succeed in both their professional and personal life while also lifting other women at multiple levels of society.
This book delves into the mission and accomplishments of the Higher Education Resource Services-East Africa (HERS-EA), an organization dedicated to advancing gender parity in leadership roles within higher education and significantly increase the number of girls and women completing their education.
The authors discuss barriers faced by women in higher education that limit their progress to career advancement and leadership positions and offer innovative solutions for addressing the challenges using evidence-based strategies for reimaging leadership for sustainable community engagement and development.
