In the sixth episode of the Woman of Impact podcast series we chat to the women behind Women in Mining South Africa, or WiMSA as it is known – the South African organisation advocating for a more diverse future in the country’s mining sector.
This episode will feature insights and lessons learnt from the women shaping the future for women in South Africa’s mining industry.
