To mark International Women’s Day on 8 March and honour its theme of “Accelerate Action”, KFC Africa has collected the stories of dozens of women who are taking bold steps to advance equality on the continent by educating, empowering and supporting women to achieve more, faster.​
​
“The women we’re honouring in 2025 are a powerful group who give us hope, even though the World Economic Forum’s Global Gender Gap Report in 2024 showed that progress seems to have ground to a halt,” says Akhona Qengqe, General Manager of KFC Africa.
