Building women's leadership, economic agency, digital capability and networks across Africa.
Join the networkSee the programsTalent is not the gap. Access is.
Look at any sector across Africa and count the women in the room where decisions are made. The number is too low. Not because women lack ability, but because too many never get the training, the mentor, the network or the first opportunity.
African ChangeMakers WOMEN exists to close that gap. We inspire women, develop them, and help each one discover the strength she already has, through training, support and mentoring.
"When we empower women, we empower communities, nations, and the entire human family."
Ban Ki-moon, former UN Secretary-General
