Yawa Hansen-Quao Social Network
Timeline
Yawa Hansen-Quao (born in Accra) is a Ghanaian founder, social entrepreneur and a feminist. She sits on the board of Ashesi University College, serves on the Advisory Board, Women's Institute for Global Leadership, Benedictine University, is founder of the Leading Ladies Network (LLN), and a member of the African Leadership Network and the World Economic Forum’s Global Shapers Community. She is a force to reckon with in the education and well-being of the girl child.
Despite these hardships Yawa had a supportive network in her father, a best friend and her mentor from the US Junior Achievement programme. This mentor saw so much potential in her that she paid Yawa's school fees during the family’s financial crises so that she could remain in school. School for Yawa was an outlet for her leadership potential and creative energy. Her maturity and responsibility was rewarded with a number of roles in student government.
Yawa joined Ashesi University hoping that it would be a platform where she could become a part of transforming Ghana. By working several jobs, depending on financial aid and friends’ generosity, she entered and gave herself to Ashesi. During her time there she started the Ashesi Business Club and Women of Ashesi student groups. She also became an HIV/AIDS peer educator and was eventually elected in 2006 as the first female to become college-level student government president in Ghana.
Aside from her regular duties as a founder, Hansen-Quao is a member of the board of directors of the Ashesi University College, on the Advisory Board of Women's Institute for Global Leadership, Benedictine University, a member of the African Leadership Network and the World Economic Forum’s Global Shapers Community. She also serves as a leadership consultant to UN Women helping to develop leadership curricula to enhance the capacity of women leaders in East and Southern Africa.
Yawa Hansen-Quao is the oldest daughter of a Ghanaian politician who was forced to flee the country in the early 1980s amidst the season of political turmoil. She lived her early life as a refugee in Togo and then in the United States. Like many African refugees forced to flee their continent, she was raised between two cultures and internalized both. It was not an easy time for Yawa, living under the trust that they would return home when it was much safer, yet this bi-cultural childhood moulded who she is today. Yawa returned home at last in 1996 as an adolescent. The dialect and cultural barriers prevented her associations with other African-brought up youngsters. The restricted advancement opportunities accessible for African young ladies rapidly got to be evident to Yawa and after her guardians isolated and the family fell on troublesome budgetary times, she needed to bolster the family and care for her dad who turned out to be sick with cancer.
