Liberian Women Honoured on International Women’s Day in London

London, UK – Mrs. Evelyn Duke-Deshield, Mrs Lena Marshall and Madam Sarah Güsten-Marr were presented with WAW – Women Appreciating Women Honorary Award on International women’s day 8th March at Holiday Inn, London Bloomsbury at the annual prestigious conference gala and dinner.

This Honorary Award was given for their endless positive contribution in the society.

WAW – Women Appreciating Women is a global movement established by the amazing visionary woman Dr. Pauline Long to bring women together to appreciate one another and to support each other in business, humanitarian projects, personally, professionally and in all aspects of life.

They bring incredibly extraordinary women together by way of patting each other’s back and supporting each other’s initiatives. Last year WAW honoured 100 women including the former Vice President of Zimbabwe Dr Joice Mujuru.

The theme at WAW this year is the 21st Century Women Leaders and Economic empowerment.

They were joined by many amazing women from the diverse world of business, media, activism, charity, education, health sector, property development sector, entertainment, and fashion on a historic night on International Women’s Day.
