Biography
Adjovi Lonlongno Apedoh was appointed by President Faure Gnassingbé and Prime Minister Victoire Tomegah Dogbé in October 2020.[1] She is one of the fifteen new ministers introduced by this government.[2] Its work primarily focuses on the advancement of women, particularly by encouraging gender equality despite social and systemic obstacles.[3] She particularly emphasized this point a few days after her appointment as minister, on the occasion of the International Day of the Girl Child, highlighting girls' education[4] with a speech[5] and the awarding of fifty prizes for the best female results in the brevet.[4] She repeated this gesture the following year with sixty female baccalaureate graduates (second cycle) as part of the program for academic excellence and leadership of Togolese girls.[6]
She is involved in implementing the HeForShe campaign in Togo, a campaign that aims to involve men in the fight for gender equality.[7] She also supports various events, including the fourth World Summit of Girls,[8][9] Women's Day, the generation equality forum[10] or the women's forum.[11]
She also aims to reduce poverty and strengthen social cohesion, which leads her to meet with agents and staff in her region of origin, Atakpamé.[12][13]
