Monrovia – As the Executive Director of the Girls Education & Empowerment Initiative (GEEI), Gwendolyn Dabah Wilson was a strong advocate for uplifting women’s lives in Liberia. The group works on programs relevant to Adolescent Sexual, Reproductive Health & Rights, Child Abandonment, Sexual & Gender-Based Violence, Girls Education, HIV/AIDS, and self-help activities for young and single mothers. It also develops and implements programs that affect situations for women, girls, and children through policy advocacy, empowerment and educational opportunities for disadvantaged girls to enable them to reach their full potential. She was a firm believer that a lot still needed to be done for young girls to overcome cultural, economic and health burdens. Your impact on girls and young women was phenomenal.”Kollie said history shall forever dignify Gwendolyn’s outstanding and admirable role.
