It is a biennial event that provides a safe space for the leadership of women\u2019s organisations to discuss strategic leadership issues, share experiences and build skills that will support their personal and organisational development. It is a safe creative space, imbued with feminist values, for renewing energy and spirit.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The (3<sup>rd<\/sup>) Chief Executive Officer\u2019s Forum will be held from 2- 4 June 2014 in Nairobi, Kenya and will focus on the theme, &#8216;Leadership, Governance &amp; Communication for CEO\u2019s and Executive Directors from African women\u2019s organisations&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The forum was set up with two key objectives:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>To create safe spaces for the leadership of women\u2019s organisations to share challenges and ideas within the current global context with their peers and collectively develop strategies for addressing these<\/li>\n<li>To create a platform for the leadership of women\u2019s organisations to discuss challenges around leadership, management and governance issues facing women\u2019s organisations in Africa and how to promote these for development.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>These objectives do not end with Nairobi. As part of its core mandate, AWDF has committed itself to efforts that seek to enable and strengthen African women\u2019s organisations and their leadership to contribute to wider development goals and especially those around women\u2019s development. Therefore, as part of its leadership support, AWDF is offering a ten month coaching support to ten Africa women leaders from AWDF grantee organisations in leadership and communication. This coaching is not about teaching, it\u2019s about walking and thinking alongside leaders and supporting them into being transformational in their leadership capacity.<\/p>\n<p>Please see PDF below for bios of the leaders undertaking the coaching programme.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.africlub.net\/awdf\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Profiles-of-10-ED-to-be-coached-over-10-Months-final.pdf\">Profiles of 10 leaders to be coached over 10 Months (final)<\/a><\/p>\n<p>By: Nafi Chinery, Capacity Building Specialist, AWDF<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3444\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3444\" style=\"width: 500px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.africlub.net\/awdf\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Nafi-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3444\" src=\"http:\/\/www.africlub.net\/awdf\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Nafi-2.jpg\" alt=\"Nafi Chinery, Capacity Building Specialist, AWDF\" width=\"500\" height=\"545\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3444\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Nafi Chinery, Capacity Building Specialist, AWDF<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The CEO Forum forms part of AWDF\u2019s commitment to strengthening the leadership of women\u2019s organisations in Africa.
