The Motor Vehicle Accident (MVA) Fund this week hosted a successful women’s event to foster gender equality, empowerment, and inclusivity in the workplace.

The event brought together female employees, leaders and external speakers for a day of discussions, workshops and networking aimed at advancing the role of women in the workplace.

MVA Fund Chief Executive Officer, Rosalia Martins-Hausiku, in a media statement on Tuesday, highlighted the importance of introspection to uplift others and make a difference in their environment.

“Never underestimate the power within you to be a vessel of positive change in the world, regardless of your status or position. It is not about where you stand; it’s about the impact you can make with your actions and choices,” Martins-Hausiku said.

The statement further read that the event featured inspiring presentations by accomplished speakers, covering various topics including among others, mental wellness, financial literacy, and healthy relationships discussed in a thought-provoking manner and creating valuable networking opportunities, and recognition of exceptional women in the organisation.

As part of the MVA Fund’s dedication to promoting a culture of inclusivity and equal opportunity, ‘the fund will continue to support the growth and development of its female and male professionals in the organisation’, it said.
