Sustainable Initiatives and Alliances for Africa is making big strides as it develops partnerships and facilitates opportunities for female entrepreneurs.
SIA-Africa recently selected Ms. Hillary Andoh, to participate in SIA-Africa’s Bloomberg-Gabai Initiative to participate in a roundtable discussion organized by The Wilson Center Africa Program and Ms. Rahama Wright, a member of the President’s Advisory Council on Doing Business in Africa. Ms. Andoh serves as Chair of the Washington, D.C. Chapter of American Women for International Understanding.
Dr. Monde Muyangwa, Director of the Wilson Center Africa Program and Ms. Wright facilitated the discussion. It was designed to offer three feasible recommendations on how the United States can help create an environment, conducive to African women leaders and entrepreneurs, and to assist U.S.-based, women-led businesses hoping to do business in Africa.
SIA-Africa will continue supporting distinguished women, like Ms. Andoh, through our Bloomberg-Gabai Initiative, which focuses on accelerated, direct-impact investment plans for Africa. Our plans will include locating resources for women-led businesses across Africa, with emphasis on creative arts, entertainment, fashion, retail, sports, technology and tourism.
