Public Relations and Strategic Development Lead
Who are we?
In 2017, only 2.3% of women with disabilities held managerial, legislative, or senior executive positions across 19 countries, according to a UN Women study.
Leadership should have no barriers. Yet, women with disabilities remain invisible in positions of power, economic opportunities, and discussions on gender equality.
The AHADI Foundation is a pioneering organization dedicated to the empowerment of women with disabilities through leadership and social innovation.
Our mission? To provide them with the tools, networks, and visibility needed to access strategic positions and influence key decisions.
An inclusive society is one where women with disabilities have a voice.
We are launching the AHADI American Friends Fund—a key initiative to mobilize leaders, philanthropists, and changemakers in the United States to accelerate our global impact.
Our ambition? To firmly establish the leadership of women with disabilities on the global agenda, aligning with the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and building an influential network that opens doors to rightful opportunities.
To support this, we are launching the AHADI American Friends Fund in New York to engage philanthropists, businesses, and institutions.
We are looking for a Public Relations & Strategic Development Expert, based in New York, to structure and activate an influential support network.
