Dear Carleton students, faculty & alumni,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Stephen Lewis Foundation is delighted to host the inaugural Ask Her Talks at Carleton University on May 28th.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s time to shift the conversation \u2014 to challenge our understanding and beliefs about how philanthropy can truly improve the human condition.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

There are remarkable leaders in Africa at the community level. Women are at the heart of the response to AIDS, are overwhelmingly the frontline health care workers, are tackling the epidemic of sexual violence \u2014 and yet we rarely, if ever, hear from them. African women are leading the way, and are experts on what works, what kind of support is most effective, and what challenges need to be met.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Five dynamic African women will speak about what happens when crises strike \u2014 such as the AIDS pandemic, Ebola, the kidnapping of Nigerian girls, and sexual violence in conflict \u2014 and the role that philanthropy should now play in a transformative response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
