From Imprisonment to Leading a Nonprofit with Dureti Tadesse
At the age of 17 years-old Dureti Tadesse was imprisoned and tortured for trying to flee her country. After escaping and coming to America she decided to start a nonprofit to reach women who like her, were discriminated against in Oromia, Ethiopia. These women are “systematically denied rights and resources, making it impossible to achieve economic security” (From her website).
In this episode, we talk about how Dureti used her experience as a driving force to make an impact in the lives of other women. We also talk about the process for starting a non-profit and building a passionate team. Dureti encourages us that we do NOT have to have all the resources, knowledge, or expertise to make a difference. We simply need a burning passion and determination to make an impact.
Topics Discussed:
Her imprisonment and torture in Ethiopia How to motivate others to get behind your vision. Selecting board members and leadership. How to make a difference even when you feel overwhelmed.
