MTN-Rwanda in collaboration with the Ministry of Gender and Family Promotion is preparing to support women’s best projects. At the end of the month, they will be selected from all over the country and awarded money to launch them.
This major telecommunications company in Rwanda, on May 29th will select 15 of the best women’s projects in the Arts, Agriculture, Innovation and Information and Communication Technology (ICT) sectors. They will receive capital to turn their dreams into reality.
“Empowering a woman is empowering a society,” says simply Mitwa Ng’ambi, the Chief Executive Officer of MTN-Rwanda, to justify the choice of women.
The first project will receive 1 million Rwandan francs, the second 700 thousand, the third 400 thousand. The remaining ones will each receive 200 thousand.
The initiative “Connect women in business” was launched jointly by MTN and the Ministry of Gender and Family Promotion on 15 May 2020. It aims to identify and reward 15 women’s groups with the best projects across the country.
