GOALS OF THE WOMEN'S LEADERSHIP PROGRAM (PLF)
By demonstrating the willingness, availability and capacity of women to make substantial and quality contributions to SSR, this program contributes, in concert with the interventions of other national and international partners, to reduce exclusionary stereotypes, and to create a more favorable environment for the participation of women in security matters in the Sahel.
Specifically, the PLF intends to set up, train, support and accompany a pool of Sahelian women – Malian, Burkinabé, Nigerian – from civil society, so that they can actively contribute to the security issues that affect their lives and those of their communities in their countries.
