#KnowherStory is a Global Citizen and DAWNS DIGEST award winning project which aims at telling #grassroots women's unique and remarkable stories.
Each year, Global Citizen and DAWNS DIGEST support humanitarian reporters and storytellers across the globe with a generous sum of $ 1000. This year, 2013 - together with other three finalists, #knowherStory won the grant award.
The goal of this project is to highlight grassroots women leaders’ powerful stories of change as well as having it documented for future reference. This will show that grassroots women leaders continue to play an invaluable role in restoring peace and transforming the society for good. In Cameroon, discussions about women leadership in general have yet to gain local recognition. There has been even less talk about the women leaders on the grassroots level. Even among academicians, media professionals, politicians, and community elites, grassroots leadership is rarely mentioned and recognized as a strong support for national growth and development.
