International Women's Day with Dandelion Africa

Empowering women and girls is one of the most effective sustainable development levers, yet women’s rights sadly remain severely underfunded. We must change that!

To mark this year’s International Women’s Day, we were joined by Wendo Sahar, Founder and Executive Director of Dandelion Africa. Dandelion Africa is a Kenyan, women-led NGO focused on women’s health and economic empowerment. Their programs focus on women’s and girls’ reproductive health, maternal child health, economic livelihoods, and advocacy on gender-based violence through men’s engagement.

Confronting Population Denial within the United Nations

We were thrilled to host Nandita Bajaj, Executive Director of Population Balance, to examine the roles of population growth and over-consumption in today’s most pressing global crises—climate change, resource scarcity, species extinction, and biodiversity collapse.

While leading scientific authorities recognize these connections, there has been widespread dismissal of the consequences of population growth within major global agencies, particularly the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA). Nandita highlighted how this denial undermines the UN’s objectives surrounding human rights and sustainable development.
