Ms. Fominyen was met by Public Affairs Officer Roberto Quiroz II and Cultural Affairs Specialist Gladys Viban, who lauded her engagement in promoting women’s health and empowerment, and her efforts to expand greater opportunities for women and girls. “As President Obama has said, all nations which seek to develop, including the United States, must welcome the immense contributions and talents of women. Your talent at Radio Health International – together with your dynamic colleagues – is making tremendous contributions for the benefit of Cameroonian women. We are honored that you accepted our invitation to visit the United States, where you will expand further your network of professional contacts with colleagues from the U.S. and your fellow IVLP participants from other nations. We commend your leadership and dedication to join Cameroonians from all sectors to promote the health, economic development, and rights of all women and girls,” Mr. Quiroz said.
