Samuel Adewumi, from Egan, is the founder of Gwise Global Community, a nonprofit dedicated to campaigning against gender-based “abuses, discrimination, violence, and inequalities.” His organization advocates for women and girls in rural communities through training, empowerment, and “fostering global certifications in entrepreneurship and leadership,” with a focus on birth attendants, health workers, and teachers.
Samuel’s work has had an impact on hundreds. Of his organization’s training, which began with a #YALILearns course, he says, “most of our trainee women leaders (over 300) have gone ahead to read and take online courses at their own pace to foster their leadership and entrepreneurship roles.” Many of them have begun training the women they work with on sexual abuse and women’s empowerment, and the program has expanded to three outreach centers. Each center provides delivery kits for pregnant women and offers reporting stations “to train, document, report, and curb all forms of female discrimination, abuses, and violence.”
