Empowering Women, Honoring Elders: Precious Chinweani’s Bold Vision for an Inclusive Africa.
In a world where leadership is often defined by power, one young Nigerian changemaker is redefining it through purpose, compassion, and inclusion. Meet Precious Chinweani, a UPG Sustainability Leader, award-winning advocate, and founder of She Leads Global a transformative initiative empowering women and StoryCare Africa preserving intergenerational wisdom across Africa.
Her work speaks boldly to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals — particularly SDG 5: Gender Equality and SDG 10: Reduced Inequalities — proving that impactful leadership is not just about raising your voice, but lifting others along the way.
“Real sustainability begins with dignity — when women have a voice and the elderly have a seat at the table,” says Precious.
She Leads Global: Mobilizing Women, Transforming Communities
Born out of a deep desire to see women empowered beyond cultural and systemic limitations, She Leads Global (SLG) is more than a platform — it’s a movement. Since its founding in 2016, SLG has reached over 20,000 women and young professionals, providing capacity-building programs, digital skill training, leadership development, and safe spaces for growth.
At its heart, SLG embodies SDG 5, advancing gender equity by providing the tools and networks women need to thrive as leaders, entrepreneurs, and changemakers.
With signature initiatives like the “She Leads Business & Leadership Conference”, The Leadership Room, and weekly community mentorship circles, Precious has created a ripple effect across Africa’s leadership ecosystem — where women are not only seen but heard, valued, and empowered.
“Empower a woman, and you empower generations,” she says. “That’s not just a proverb — it’s a strategy for sustainable development.”
