Female Mentorship: A Catalyst for Change in Zambia

In a collaborative effort, Women In Ophthalmology (WIO), Seva Foundation, and Orbis International have come together to coordinate a global webinar series on topics that speak to current and prospective women in ophthalmology. Building on past coffee hour topics on mentorship, this coffee hour will focus on lessons in mentorship with our female eye care professionals in Zambia. The webinar series also showcases our collective efforts to partner with organizations dedicated to supporting eye care professionals to excel personally and in their careers.

Please enjoy this engaging session about mentorship in eye care. Speakers will share personal stories and experiences, highlighting strategies and key takeaways on the topics discussed. There will also be a moderated Q&A session throughout the session.
