Ambassador Huggins with the honored women at a reception at his residence

Botswana's Women Vanguard Leaders

In National Women's History Month the U.S. Embassy is honored to recognize five extrodinary Batswana who shine brighter than the rest -- and who happen to be women.

In any country, in any age, these people would stand out for their dedication and their vision. That they have achieved so much should inspire us all. That they have done so as women should give every girl reason to believe she, too, can reach for the stars.
