“Air connectivity, at its core, is about Africa’s ability to act collectively and obtain concrete results. For decades, we have spoken about integration, trade and free movement. We know what has to be done. We just have to do it.” President Kagame | African Air Transport Convention & Expo 2026
In her closing remarks, @LinaShyaka, Chair, @Women_FinanceRW foundation, highlighted, "We need to shift from treating this gap as an HR issue to a strategic priority, with intentional efforts to build capacity and prepare people early for opportunities. Initiatives like junior executive committees can create visibility and develop future leaders.
Institutions should also recognize the importance of creating financial ECDs because ECDs are not just a women’s issue but a family issue and addressing this will strengthen institutions in the sector. Finally, growth should go beyond upward promotion to include side pathways that deepen skills and build long-term capability."
