WLEC 2014 - Women’s Leadership and Empowerment Conference 2014

“Some leaders are born women.” The topic of this Conference is inspired by fact that women constitute half of the world’s population, perform nearly two thirds of its work hours, receive one-tenth of the world’s income and still own less than one-hundredth of the world’s property.
