Link to\u00a0Dr. Rasha Kelej\u2019s<\/strong>\u00a0Mentorship and Leadership Platform<\/strong>:\u00a0https:\/\/open.substack.com\/pub\/rashakelej<\/strong><\/a><\/p>

I am excited to launch “Beyond Power: Leadership, Global Influence and Impact”<\/strong>, my first virtual Mentorship and Leadership Platform through Substack, creating an accessible resource designed to inspire, guide, and support future leaders, particularly women and young aspiring leaders.<\/strong> The platform is accessible to all, ensuring that aspiring leaders from diverse backgrounds can benefit from valuable mentorship, leadership insights, and practical guidance.<\/p>

\"\"<\/figure>

Through the Mentorship and Leadership Platform, I will share my\u00a032 years of knowledge and experience<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0to support and guide aspiring individuals in unlocking their hidden potential, achieving their professional and personal goals, and becoming the leaders of tomorrow.\u00a0<\/p>

\"\"<\/figure>

Beyond sharing ideas on\u00a0leadership, influence, and social impact,<\/strong>\u00a0I see this platform as a mentorship journey. Throughout my career, I have been fortunate to work alongside remarkable leaders across Africa and beyond, and I believe that knowledge and experience become truly valuable when they are shared. Through these articles, I hope to support and inspire future leaders, especially women and young people, to believe in their potential, develop their\u00a0skills, and lead with integrity, compassion, and courage.\u00a0<\/strong>This is my contribution to sustainable development and capacity building:\u00a0investing in people, sharing lessons learned, and helping to create a new generation of leaders who will shape a better future for their communities and countries.<\/strong><\/p>

\"\"<\/figure>

Over the\u00a0past 14 years<\/strong>, I have been working closely with more than\u00a033 African and Asian First Ladies, who are the Ambassadors of Merck Foundation \u201cMore Than a Mother\u201d<\/strong>, leading our joint programs in their respective countries, as well as with key partners including\u00a0Ministries of Health, Information, Education & Gender, academia, policymakers, international fertility societies, media, and the arts sector from over 52 countries.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>

\"\"<\/figure>

I am leading several impactful programs, including the\u00a0\u201cMerck Foundation Scholarships Program\u201d<\/strong>, through which more than\u00a02,600 scholarships have been provided to healthcare providers from 52 countries in 44 critical and underserved medical specialties<\/strong>. Alongside this, the\u00a0\u201cMerck Foundation More Than a Mother\u201d movement, launched in 2015<\/strong>, has become one of the most impactful and widely recognized campaigns aiming to empower infertile and childless women through access to\u00a0information, education, health, and mindset change.\u00a0<\/strong>The campaign is\u00a0building quality and equitable reproductive and fertility care capacity, breaking infertility stigma, raising awareness about infertility prevention and male infertility, and supporting girls\u2019 education.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>

\"\"<\/figure>

I am also a strong advocate for supporting girls\u2019 education and firmly believe that educating girls is one of the most effective ways to transform communities.<\/p>

Through Merck Foundation “Educating Linda” program<\/strong> in partnership with African First Ladies, more than 1,500 annual scholarships are awarded to African schoolgirls from 21 countries<\/strong>, covering school fees and other essential educational expenses, including books, uniforms and transport, enabling them to complete their education and reach their full potential.<\/p>

The links of the articles can also be accessed on Merck Foundation Website<\/strong>. Moreover, the links will also be access through mine and Merck Foundation\u2019s Social Media Channels.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>
