The Flying Doctors Air Ambulance runs an active corporate social responsibility program aimed at promoting gender equality across Africa. We do this by focussing on women’s health, empowerment and educational programs.
This year we have held competitions, given out grants, spoken & sponsored women’s conferences, engaged in women’s advocacy and worked to provide hundreds of girls with sanitary products so they can attend school during their periods.
Last month we decided to collaborate with WIMBIZ to support their annual graduate program for girls. With our help they were able to train hundreds of women for the workplace. The training subjects included personal productivity, project management, communication skills and office management. These women were then provided with internships in companies across Nigeria.
Programs like this help provide young women with opportunities in an environment where there are often fewer opportunities for women compared to men.
