International Women’s Day gives the world a chance to inspire women and celebrate their achievements.
This year, at the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT), we want to showcase the stories of women who have made innovative strides in the maize and wheat sectors --and we need your help. We also want to hear about inspiring women working in conservation agriculture, genetic resources and related socio-economics of wheat and maize.
Tell us about your super woman and nominate her to be featured on our website in the lead up to International Women’s Day, March 8, 2015.
Write either a brief summary (no more than 300 words in length), or submit a video or audio recording (under three minutes long) about how your super woman makes a difference in maize, wheat or conservation agriculture farming, research or technology.
Be sure to share contact information for both you and your nominee, so that we can get in touch with both of you before publishing her story.
Please submit your story and a photograph of your super woman by February 20, 2015 to join in the celebration by clicking here and scrolling down to complete the form:
