Don't Limit Women's Potential-Country Director Plan International Malawi

The need to spport women in all spheres of life has been emphasized.

This postion was made known by the Interim Country Director of Plan International Malawi, Phoebe Kasoga,

There are living examples of how stereotypes are reinforced to the disadvantage of girls and women due to media representation through magazines, movies, adverts and news. This limits their potential.''

“We see that there is less support for females in certain industries. Our ambassador is an engineer and she said when she started out in the industry, she was told that she was most likely going to be sent home. This type of behavior makes women look down on themselves,”  Kasoga stated
