Mhlanga eyes Women Changing the World award

In an interview with NewsDay Life & Style, Mhlanga said the book would be launched at the Women Changing the World Awards set for next month where she is a nominee and has high hopes of scooping the gong.

A ZIMBABWEAN woman Iris Zemza Nozizwe Mhlanga of Nozizwe Mother of Nations Trust has become the first African to contribute her literature in Women Making a Difference, a book authored by 25 females from different backgrounds.

Among the authors of Women Making a Difference are Cara Antoine from the Netherlands, a woman pioneering in the tech field and advocating greater representation of women in the industry, and Sarifa Alonto-Younes who is passionate about education and providing education for children in the Philippines.

In an interview with NewsDay Life & Style, Mhlanga said the book would be launched at the Women Changing the World Awards set for next month where she is a nominee and has high hopes of scooping the gong.

“Women Making a Difference is a collection of stories from 25 women across the world. We are a selected group of women changing the world. The title of the book has been specifically created for women with global ambitions and female future leaders,” she said.

She said recognition generated from the writing had opened more avenues for her trust (for the vulnerable) inspired by her family background.

“I come from a family of helpers, my family has always been involved in vulnerable community upliftment one way or the other. My late father was president of the Highlanders Football Club and he used to take care of people from all walks of life,” she said.

Mhlanga said the Nozizwe Mother of Nations Trust was established in 2018 and was known for assisting, the underprivileged, widowed, disabled, orphaned and other marginalised members of society through provision of financial and material support.

This has seen Mhlanga assisting 1 000 orphans in and around Zimbabwe with tuition fees.
