Top 25 Women of Influence 2017: Farah Mohamed

 

 

Farah Mohamed

CEO, Malala Fund

Farah Mohamed has been a longstanding advocate for girls and women around the world. As founder and CEO of G(irls)20, she built an organization focused on cultivating a new generation of female leaders using education, entrepreneurial training, leadership, and global experiences. The experience prepared her for her next big role: Farah took over as CEO of the Malala Fund in June, after her official appointment was announced earlier in the year. Moving her home-base from Canada to the UK, she’s now overseeing efforts to invest in girls’ education programs, and advocating for the resources and policy changes needed to give all girls a secondary education.
