Stake experts

Claude Biao (M)

Director, Head of Conflict Research

At Stake experts, we work with communities in Africa on a daily basis. Whether when engaging them in research, training, or dialogue, what we see on those multiple occasions is people of all genders striving to achieve the same goal, peace, yet sometimes leaving aside the tremendous opportunity to embrace some of their members, women. Stake experts commits to implementing the WEPs because we believe empowering women in our business to help communities do the same is not an option. It is the only way to build what our corporate history and culture always stood for: lasting social justice and peace.
