Call for Applications: Women Under 30 Who Inspire and Mentor
By Diana Achieng | AfricanColours.com

About W30:

Women under 30 looks at young African women who mentor and inspire their community by challenging the existing discourse / notion that Women are mentally and physically incompetent to perform certain responsibilities. The team is therefore in search for Young women under 30 who are doing everything possible within their reach to represent the womans' competence in all works / fields of life.
