Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung@ 40 in Ghana ABANTU can not forget to mention FES's continued support of the highly successful modular programme for women in political parties in collaboration with ABANTU and Women in Broadcasting. This programme has not only given skills and enhanced knowledge but enabled participants develop capacities to identify strategies and influence change within existing political arrangements. ABANTU is therefore happy to share this auspicious time with Friedrich Ebert Foundation knowing that we have a stake in our collective collaborative effort in the achievement of gender equality and equity for sustainable development in this country and beyond.
