The initiative aims to empower women entrepreneurs in the agricultural sector by providing them with access to markets, finance, and investments. It also offers tailored online and offline activities for networking, learning, and global advocacy. These efforts are aimed at addressing the barriers that hinder women’s business growth and market participation in agriculture.
VALUE4HER is powered by VALUE4HERConnect, Africa’s first digital marketplace for women in agribusiness. It provides integrated business solutions to women agri enterprises.
The specific objectives of the initiative are:
1. Support women-led agribusinesses in accessing competitive regional and global markets.
2. Enhance the knowledge, skills, and capabilities of women business leaders to improve their agribusinesses and achieve higher returns.
3. Facilitate collective action and advocacy to create a level playing field for women’s entrepreneurship.
The VALUE4HER platform increases the visibility of women agribusinesses, helps them build collective capital and networks across the continent, and facilitates connections with buyers, financiers, and other business service providers.
