Cecilia Rabecca Mphande
I knew Monica when both of us were participating in the African Leadership Development Program, 2013. Her varied and rich experience contributed significantly to the program and our learning as she shared relevant examples. Her great passion to support fellow young African-Australians to empower themselves, is quite inspiring. Also, Monica makes her presence felt through her excellent communication skills.
