VVLeadFellowshipProgram
WHAT IS THE PROGRAM?
The program will support a global network of emerging and established women leaders who provide unusual and sustainable solutions to pressing problems that have impeded women and girls’ progress to participate fully in society and the economy.

The VVLead Fellowship Program is a critical step in this response, offering participantsunique opportunities to exchange information, obtain resources and tools, mentor and be mentored and receive vital training over the course of three years through offerings tailored to meet their needs, goals and objectives.
