RES and Mastercard Foundation Commemorate International Women’s Day, Centering Women in Policy Research

In response to the sustained global campaign for mainstreaming gender perspectives in research, Research Enterprise Systems (RES), in partnership with the Mastercard Foundation, commemorated the 2024 International Women’s Day with the theme:

“Count Her In: Centering Women in Policy-Oriented Research in Africa.”

The event took place on Thursday, March 28, 2024, and convened selected stakeholders within Africa’s knowledge production and consumption space. Discussions focused on fostering gender equity in policy-oriented research, the importance of including women’s perspectives in evidence generation, and actionable pathways for ensuring inclusive participation in Africa’s research ecosystem.

The commemoration reflects RES’s commitment to advancing gender equity within Africa’s research and policy landscape to support evidence-driven, inclusive development across the continent.
