Women in Leadership Retreat- Learning Circles for Executive Women
The Australian government is committed to supporting Australian alumni to contribute to development in Laos and aims to ensure women and girls benefit across the broad range of its development cooperation with Laos.
In March 2023, Australia funded the Women in Leadership Retreat – Learning Circles for Executive Women program with 26 Australian Alumni women leaders. Women in Leadership – Learning Circles for Executive Women is an ongoing learning initiative. Over the next 12 months these women will be provided opportunities to learn from their own and others’ experiences, test ideas and share ongoing feedback through peer-to-peer coaching which will help them build the skills and confidence to tackle the challenges for women leaders in Lao PDR.
