ABOUT US

The African Women’s Entrepreneurship Program (AWEP) seeks to equip African businesswomen with the tools and opportunities to accelerate the growth of their businesses, become leaders in their communities and drive social and economic progress in Africa.

AWEP was launched in July 2010 at the United States/sub-Saharan Africa Trade and Economic Co-operation Forum (AGOA Forum). Organized and supported by several U.S. agencies, under the leadership of the U.S. Department of State, the original AWEP event sponsored by the Office of International Visitors brought 34 African businesswomen from AGOA-eligible countries to the United States for a two-week program in 2010.

AWEP identifies and builds networks of women entrepreneurs across sub-Saharan Africa poised to transform their societies by owning, running, and operating small and medium businesses, and by becoming voices for social advocacy in their communities. Women are the backbone of communities and the African continent's greatest potential to unlocking economic growth.

Last year, 40 women from 37 African countries participated in the program, which provides the women with an opportunity to meet and network with U.S. business people, policy makers, industry associations, non-profit organizations advocating for women’s economic opportunities, and multilateral development organizations.

The program outlined three goals:

• Accelerate the growth of women-owned businesses and export capacity;
• Foster leadership for women’s business organizations; and,
• Support women’s advocacy roles as “voices of change” in their communities

 

  

BUSINESS REVIEWS

There are no reviews at the moment

Verified Review Policy

100% Genuine

There are many online platforms that accept customer reviews these days, and we all know that these reviews can be faked. So when you see our green tick, you have the safety of knowing that every review on Top Property has been independently investigated by us, and verified as a genuine customer.

The way we verify any review is with evidence of the contract between that business and client, like a copy of an invoice, a signed contract, a receipt of payment, or a related internal company record.

This information is supplied to us when that review is submitted, and it’s only when we are satisfied it’s legitimate, that will we publish it. This information we use as evidence is provided to us by the company which that review is about, and or by the client who paid for those products and or services.
