The aim as always is to be able to continue to inspire, motivate and empower women, celebrate our successes and show that it can be done. Our distinguished judges are carefully selected and they embody ladies who are doing exceptionally well in their chosen fields and are great examples of strong women doing great things. We want other women to be inspired by these women and strive to be the best they can be.
This year, our theme is “THE YEAR OF INSPIRATION”. We chose this theme because from the last quarter of 2016 to date, a lot of inspiring women have emerged and are emerging, these extraordinary exquisite women are showing other women that it can be done and can be done gracefully too.
We want to know any woman in any community, workplace, field or anywhere that is doing great works and inspiring other people, we want to celebrate those women every week during the CEMI (Celebrate, Empower, Motivate and Inspire) honours which was created to celebrate these women. The celebrations will be done all through the months running up to the ELOY awards 2017. We ask everyone to send us names and reasons why we should celebrate their nominees. These set of nominees are different from the nominees for the ELOY awards.
