Descripción de la sesión
Women in Water is a one-hour podcast that highlights the leadership journeys of women reshaping how communities, ecosystems, and institutions manage our most precious resource. The conversation begins with Adenike Oladosu - an ecofeminist active in Lake Chad - who shares her personal journey and grassroots engagement to protect fragile ecosystems and the millions of people whose lives depend on them. We then hear from Pianporn “Pai” Deetes – a campaigns director at International Rivers - who reflects on organising river communities in Southeast Asia to resist dam projects that endanger local livelihoods, regional resilience, and the health of freshwater ecosystems. Finally, Santina Benson - Executive Director of the CEO Roundtable of Tanzania - brings her business leader perspective and illustrates how ethical leadership in business and finance can mobilise investment for sustainable water management across Africa. Their stories underline women’s pivotal role in shaping water governance and transboundary collaboration.Organised by
