The Commonwealth Businesswomen's Network 2022 Africa Summit
This summit shall be running from the 9th-10th March 2022 and is intended to elevate the African Women’s latent entrepreneurial potential to lead and accrue wealth and political power for the benefit of the continent. Hence, the Summit provides a useful Platform to activate concrete strategies and processes to empower women by taking advantage of the Commonwealth Advantage and the Intra Africa Trade Agreement.
African women in general need to know that it is okay for them to be the way they are – to see the way they are as a strength, and to be liberated from fear and silence.
