Mary Izobo is an award-winning lawyer, gender advocate and governance expert with experience in the field of human rights, governance, and the rule of law for development.

She is also the founder of The Amazon Leadership Initiative , which aims to empower women and girls, provide support networks, mentorship, career guidance, education and capacity development to alleviate gender inequality.

In 2020, TheALI collaborated with the Graça Machel Trust in commemorating the International Day of the Girl Child through an intergenerational dialogue on the theme, She is Equal. We brought together girls’ representatives from the five regions in Africa to afford them the opportunity to share their concerns and challenges primarily to inform and influence the advocacy agenda for girls within the African continent.

In spite of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have carried out a lot of advocacy programmes virtually by bringing together notable male and female leaders to continue to discuss issues around the achievement of gender equality and equity. We have also carried out work particularly in relation to women and girls in the context of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the rights of women and girls.
