SUMMARY:Redefining Work/Life Balance East Africa PowerUp Workshop
DESCRIPTION:We envision a world where diverse\, accomplished leaders collectively transform health outcomes. To realize that vision\, we seek to expand the power and influence of talented mid-career women in health and engage with senior institutional and societal leaders to catalyze systemic change for gender equality in health leadership. We work in East Africa\, India\, Nigeria\, North America\, and Southern Africa and continue to explore outreach to other regions. \nPowerUp Workshop Series \nThe WomenLift Health PowerUp Workshops are a series of leadership workshops that are free and open to mid-career women working in global health. The workshops are hosted virtually by our regional hubs in East Africa\, North America\, South Africa\, Nigeria and South Asia and focus on developing leadership skills and fostering meaningful connections between women leaders in health. The topics rotate with each event. We encourage women leaders in health around the world to join us\, and use these workshops as an opportunity to learn\, engage with other women leaders\, and build community.   \nRedefining Work/Life Balance \nThursday\, September 18\, 2025 at 2pm–4 pm EAT / 1pm–3 pm CAT/SAST \nWomen leaders in Global Public Health are dealing with complex challenges\, competing demands\, fast-paced work environments which require one to pivot at very short notice and take on more responsibilities without additional resources or support. The notion of balancing work and personal priorities has always seemed challenging if not unattainable and the pandemic has upended it even further. Also\, the word “balance” may suggest that “work” is competing with “life\,” implying that one is always working against the other\, rather than functioning in harmony. It almost feels like one must walk on a tightrope between the two in order not to disturb the balance. Perhaps the secret lies in integrating the two rather than trying to constantly create a 50/50 split.  \nJoin us to explore a more integrative and harmonious approach. This session will provide you with the information and tools you need to move toward a more productive and sustainable way of managing the boundaries between work and personal life. You will explore and articulate these sources through structured small-group exercises and interactive plenary discussions set against reflective frameworks to uncover and refine skill sets often already held within.  \nSession Objectives  \n\n	Understand the strengths and challenges associated with your personal priorities and preferences. \n	Identify and build a more harmonized approach that is tailored to your preferences. \n\nRegistration Details \nYou are eligible for the workshop if you meet all of the following criteria: \n\n	Identify as a woman\n	Live and work in East and Southern Africa countries\n	Are a mid-career global health professional*\n\nThis virtual workshop will be conducted in the English language and is free of cost. \nWomenLift Health PowerUp Workshops are interactive. By signing up\, participants agree to participate in the full session\, which includes plenary discussions and breakout group activities. \nEnrollment will be on a first-come-first-served basis\, as spots are limited. \n*Although women at all career stages are welcome to register\, we believe participants who are at the mid-career stage will benefit most\, as the content of the workshop has been designed with mid-career women health professionals in mind (10–25 years of experience working in the global health sector). If the number of registrants exceeds our capacity\, women who are within the preferred experience range will be given priority. \nRegistrants should await an email confirming their spot in the workshop. Please check your spam folders if you did not receive an email.
