I am honored to be featured in the Top Women Leadership magazine, the work I do through the SENAMILE MASANGO FOUNDATION, bringing science to society ( science to solve our own problems). What makes this publication to be extra special is that it was not a paid recognition 😭, it shows the impact of the Foundation 🙏🏾🙏🏾 #senamilemasangofoundation building Africa we want and leaving no one behind
