Reading through Google Stories’ recent article celebrating women’s firsts in anticipation of International Women’s Day, I experienced mixed feeling of inspiration and surprising angst. While excited about the beautiful stories of women conquering new frontiers, I was a little disillusioned with the fact that in 2021, with the dramatic revolution the world has undergone in different areas, we still need to point out first-women positions, as recently as this year for key global decision-making positions.
Concerned that this may be giving the world a false sense of achievement around gender equity, I shared my misgivings with Vivianne Ihekweazu who provided structured perspectives on the celebration of firsts. Vivianne is Managing Director at Nigeria Health Watch, a not-for-profit that uses informed advocacy and communication to influence health policy and seek better health and access to healthcare in Nigeria.
