In line with its legislative mandate, the Commission for Gender Equality (CGE) will host a webinar on its Gender Transformation Reports on Institutions of Higher Learning (IHL). Between 2014 and 2023, the CGE completed several investigative and research reports and made findings and recommendations to IHL.
