Summary: In this month’sAfrica Conversations, we’d like to discuss an issue that is at the forefront of U.S. foreign policy, that of gender equality and women’s empowerment. In the words of Former U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, “too many women in too many countries speak the same language — of silence.” So what better way to address this issue than to talk about it? To break that silence? Africa Conversations invited Carole Da Silva, Stephanie Bombrun, and Elizabeth Milovidov to discuss Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg’s best-selling book “Lean In” and gender equality.
