DARE Project: Assessing Canada’s Women’s Empowerment Programs in Africa
Program(s) of Study: Business & Society
Project Supervisor: Sylvia Bawa
Researching my home country was an enjoyable experience because it confirmed the non-existence of a monolith and despite pandemic limitations, that was a worthwhile endeavour. But most of all working with Dr. Bawa, a Ghanaian feminist professor eliminated the need for potentially problematic discussions some scholars have about certain countries. That fundamental understanding laid the groundwork for seamless research.
