PRESS RELEASE

INDMO joins CARE’s Lafaek project in promoting women’s leadership

Dili, 15 September 2023 – Timor-Leste boasts one of the highest proportions of female leadership in Asia and the Pacific in the national parliament. However, women’s leadership remain low at the local level, with examples of the suco chief position being predominantly occupied by men. 

The Journalista Ki’ik (Young Journalist) activity has been implemented by CARE’s Lafaek project, with a clear focus on promoting and increasing women’s leadership at all levels of society. In this activity, primary school children are invited to take on the role of journalists for a day and interview influential and inspiring women leaders in Timor-Leste. Whilst this platform aims to enhance schoolchildren’s confidence and strengthen their public speaking skills, it also allows female leaders to inspire other women and girls and share their journey to success in their careers.

On 15 September 2023, the Lafaek project invites primary school students to converse with the National Institute of Labour Development (INDMO) National Director, H.E. Isabel Fernandes de Lima, to discuss her experience being a female director and promote women’s leadership at all levels of society.

The content from the interview will be packaged in the upcoming Lafaek Prima magazine edition and shared in community dialogue sessions across municipalities in Timor-Leste.

CARE appreciates H.E. INDMO Director Isabel for taking a stand with us on advocating for women’s leadership and calls for decision-makers to create more opportunities for women to lead and participate at all levels of society to inspire other women and girls to fulfil their potential to become future decision-makers.
