The Southern Africa Hub’s Speaker Series offers a platform for rich\, intergenerational conversations with women leaders who are shaping health and development.  \nThis upcoming event features a dynamic conversation between three women in public health leadership:  \n\n	 Matshidiso Moeti (former WHO Regional Director for Africa)\,\n	Akhona Tshangela (Southern Africa Director\, WomenLift Health)\, and\n	Laimi Ashipala (Non-Communicable Disease Officer at WHO and 2025 Southern Africa Leadership Journey cohort member).\n\nThis dialogue will reflect both shared and unique perspectives\, offering powerful insights for leaders at various stages of their journey.  \nEvent Overview  \nIn this 75-minute virtual event\, Dr. Matshidiso Moeti will join Laimi Ashipala and Akhona Tshangela for a powerful intergenerational conversation on navigating leadership and advancing gender equity in health.
