Empowering Women Entrepreneurs
Woman have the potential to spur a nation’s economic growth.
More and more women have the education and skills required to make significant contributions to national life. A United Nations report indicates that investing in female education "has a multiplier effect on productivity, efficiency and sustained economic growth".
With appropriate access to micro-finance, education, support and resources, entrepreneurial women can grow their own businesses and help to provide for their families.
Based on the success of a pilot program in Africa, Lusis proposes to create a network of Entrepreneurship Centers in strategic locations, providing information, training, consulting services and professional support for women entrepreneurs.
