The BBC has unveiled its lineup of 100 inspiring and influential women from around the globe for 2021, and we are thrilled to announce that OLUYEMI ORIJA, our Executive Director at Headfort Foundation, has been included in the notable list. We extend our heartfelt congratulations to you and express our deep appreciation for your passion, resilience, commitment, and hard work. Headfort Foundation continues to thrive today because of your unwavering determination, and we are truly grateful for your compassionate spirit.
The selection encompasses a diverse range of powerful women from various backgrounds, including Afghanistan, the Culture & Education sector, the Entertainment & Sports industry, women in Politics & Activism, and women in Science & Health worldwide. This year's theme, "Hitting Reset," celebrates women who are actively reshaping our society, culture, and world. Notably, half of the list comprises women from Afghanistan, some of whom are represented under pseudonyms and without photos for their safety. You can view the full list [here](link to the list).
