    Dr. Judith Satoguina, a Beninese alumna ...
    of the International Visitor Leadership Program, says her experience in the US “enhanced my awareness of the crucial lack of female scientific researchers in Benin.” As a result, Dr. Satoguina has returned home to lead a winning 2012 AEIF project to encourage young Beninese women to choose careers in math, science, physics, chemistry, and biology.
