 I've undergone I think this this growth over the past year and I describe the WLI program as being the icing on the cake of my Australia Awards journey. Having those personal development skills and the technical knowledge I really see myself going back to PNG and making a change. It is good for educated women to realize that they have a role to play when they go back home to be connected with women. I just think it's an amazing program because you know working with mentoring young girls for so long now and I just feel that within the Pacific we're not doing enough ourselves of paying it forward so this group you've really done a lot of wonderful stuff with them. It's something that's enabled women to take part actively in leadership roles in different fields. Defining leadership is being empowered knowing that leadership is a choice and out of position and that you can be a leader in any capacity that you are in. Because it really changes me inside out like I didn't realize I would be connecting with the attorney general of Tuvalu. This platform helped me to connect with women leaders out there or even the deputy prime minister of Samoa. It's been good I mean because Karen and I you know we've connected really well so it's been easy for us. We've ended up just making our own way and developing our own work program and goals and things like that so she came and did an internship with us at our organization and and hoping she'll apply for some jobs coming up in our organization. So it's friendship it's network but now that I have all these women I feel like I have family everywhere in the Pacific and it's that I thought to myself if ever they offer me a opportunity to go to Papua New Guinea I would go straight away because I have someone there and I know I can be a leader one day like a very high position leader maybe the minister of health one day. We know that women that are leaders or enter into any sort of opportunity whether it's entrepreneurship or employment I think it's vital to the world becoming a better place. I'd like to really thank the Women's Leadership Initiative and the Australian Awards for giving me the opportunity to come and study in Australia to get a degree in the education but also think of ways where I can reintegrate or gather these skills that I have and then making a difference in my country multiply that by 35 who knows what the future has for the Pacific. If there are you know interested women out there who've seen this program being advertised go for it.
