Leadership should open doors, build confidence and create opportunities for others. That is the kind of leadership communities need today. #TBWomenLeadershipAcademy2026 #WhenWomenLeadChangeHappens @Yplus_Global @Leanonmek

Women leaders are not waiting for change. They are learning, organizing, advocating and taking action. Leadership creates momentum for progress. #TBWomenLeadershipAcademy2026 #WhenWomenLeadChangeHappens @Yplus_Global @Leanonmek

Leadership means turning lived experience into action and using your voice to open doors for others. Women leaders are shaping conversations that matter. #TBWomenLeadershipAcademy2026 #WhenWomenLeadChangeHappens @Yplus_Global @Leanonmek

Peer learning serves as a core model for cultivating sustainable leadership. Recognizing women as primary sources of expertise allows them to challenge and strengthen each other. @Yplus_Global @CS4MEglobal. #TBWomenLeadershipAcademy2026. #WhenWomenLeadChangeHappens.

Different journeys brought different answers to the same challenge, how can women affected by TB have greater influence over the systems shaping their lives. #TBWomenLeadershipAcademy2026 @Yplus_Global @Leanonmek @GlobalFund @CS4MEglobal @AJWS @TBWomenGlobal @StopTB @realTBpeople

The work now moves beyond the Academy. The relationships built here must become channels for mentorship, collaboration, advocacy and collective influence across communities, organizations, national programs and global health spaces. At @Leanonmek, the objective is not to produce isolated leaders. It is to strengthen women who can lead together, influence together and create pathways for more women to follow. @Yplus_Global @GlobalFund @CS4MEglobal @AJWS @TBWomenGlobal @StopTB @realTBpeople @ahfkenya #TBWomenLeadershipAcademy2026 #WhenWomenLeadChangeHappens

Leadership practice also happened in the small moments. Speaking up. Listening differently. Questioning power. Sharing experience. Supporting another woman’s voice. Learning when to lead and when to create space for someone else. These are not secondary skills. They are part of how women build the confidence and judgement required to influence institutions and systems. @Yplus_Global @GlobalFund @CS4MEglobal @AJWS @TBWomenGlobal @StopTB @realTBpeople @ahfkenya #WhenWomenLeadChangeHappens

The group conversations mattered because leadership is not built in isolation. Women were able to test ideas, challenge assumptions, share strategies and learn from experiences different from their own. For us, peer learning is part of leadership development because stronger leaders also need stronger networks around them. @Yplus_Global @GlobalFund @CS4MEglobal @AJWS @TBWomenGlobal @StopTB @realTBpeople @ahfkenya #TBWomenLeadershipAcademy2026 #WhenWomenLeadChangeHappens

At @Leanonmek, we did not convene the #TBWomenLeadershipAcademy2026 simply to bring women together. We convened it to strengthen a leadership constituency: women affected by TB who can carry lived experience, technical knowledge and community priorities into the spaces where programs, policies and resources are shaped. @Yplus_Global @GlobalFund @CS4MEglobal @AJWS @TBWomenGlobal @StopTB @realTBpeople @ahfkenya #TBWomenLeadershipAcademy2026 #WhenWomenLeadChangeHappens

One of the most powerful moments was women learning from women sharing lessons shaped by different journeys, communities and experiences. #TBWomenLeadershipAcademy2026 @Yplus_Global @Leanonmek @GlobalFund @CS4MEglobal @AJWS @TBWomenGlobal @StopTB @realTBpeople

The most valuable resource was not only what each woman already knew. It was what became possible when that knowledge was shared. #TBWomenLeadershipAcademy2026 @Yplus_Global @Leanonmek @GlobalFund @CS4MEglobal @AJWS @TBWomenGlobal @StopTB @realTBpeople

Collective leadership does not mean everyone thinks alike. It means different experiences can challenge, strengthen and move each other towards a shared purpose. #TBWomenLeadershipAcademy2026 @Yplus_Global @Leanonmek @GlobalFund @CS4MEglobal @AJWS @TBWomenGlobal @StopTB

This bridge is exactly where leadership becomes transformative. At @Leanonmek, we believe community experience must travel with women into the rooms where priorities, financing and policy are decided. #TBWomenLeadershipAcademy2026 #WhenWomenLeadChangeHappens
Leadership is strongest when it moves in both directions: upward into institutions and outward into communities. @maureenmurenga, TB Women Global Coordinator, represents that bridge between community experience and the spaces where strategy, financing and policy are shaped. @Yplus_Global @GlobalFund @CS4MEglobal @AJWS @m3rryprayers @Leanonmek #WhenWomenLeadChangeHappens
