medica mondiale, a feminist organization, organized on February 18, 2025, a networking day for women entrepreneurs at Q. INSS, Av. Makamba n°4, as part of its incubator "Femme debout / Umukenyezi wagaciro."
A German NGO committed to gender equality and the fight against gender-based sexual violence, medica mondiale supports women's organizations. The event brought together microfinance institutions, banks, investors, and other key financing actors.
"Women's entrepreneurship is an essential lever for the economic and social development of Burundi. However, women entrepreneurs face obstacles, particularly access to financing. This day aims to facilitate connections, open doors, and create bridges between those with innovative ideas and those who can support them," emphasized Maria Grazia MASSARO, Regional Representative of medica mondiale.
This exchange space allowed participants to establish strategic contacts and strengthen their access to financial resources.
