Lessons from Rwanda: CIFAR Women in Research Leadership Development Symposium
Curious about what happens when exceptional early career researchers from across sub-Saharan Africa come together to learn, connect, and grow? Join Dr. Nompumelelo Baso as she shares her experience at the CIFAR Women in Research Leadership Development Symposium in Kigali, Rwanda.
This wasn’t just another academic event—it was a powerful gathering of brilliant minds from all disciplines, united by a shared passion for research and leadership. She experienced transformative workshops that challenged her to think bigger and lead with purpose. She built networks that cross borders and disciplines and was mentored by some of Africa’s most inspiring women research leaders.
“I walked away with not just new skills but lifelong connections and a fresh perspective on leadership and collaboration.” Come hear the stories, the lessons, and how this experience is shaping her journey and get inspired!
