The International Women's Day 2017

The International Women’s Day Commemorates the Struggle for Women’s Rights.

The International Women’s Day commemorates the struggle for women’s rights.

In Nigeria however, women are unable to meet the challenges of the 21st century as a result of illiteracy.

Statistics show that 123 million Nigerians are illiterate and out of this 73 million are women.

The Ark of Cypress Women empowerment Center participated in the global celebration of the international women’s day. And in a bid to eradicate illiteracy from amongst women in our society we enjoin all well meaning individuals to support our drive for the education of the girl child in Nigeria as illitetacy anywhere in the world is an act of injustice.

I had the privilege of being taught by Dr. William Ury — author, academic, and anthropologist at Harvard University, Boston, USA. He is one of the world’s leading experts in negotiation and mediation, and co-founder of the Harvard Program on Negotiation. During my Executive Leadership Program on Negotiation in 2019, I had the opportunity to learn directly from him, an experience that continues to shape my work and impact today.”

Negotiations are very critical in the 21st century towards fostering global peace and industrial harmony, particularly in Nigeria.
