Revealing the challenges and aspirations of women entrepreneurs in the DRC: recommendations from the Women’s Voice and Leadership Advocacy Group

The Women’s Voice and Leadership Advocacy Group (GPVLF) recently held a groundbreaking event shedding light on female entrepreneurship challenges in the Democratic Republic of Congo. At a press conference convened by GPVLF, esteemed experts like Marie Louise Mwange, Grace Ngyke Kangundu, Anne Jacquie Kitoga, and Beleive Munoki shared pivotal recommendations stemming from their dialogues with women entrepreneurs.

Central to the discussions was the imperative for women to fully grasp the legal framework for entrepreneurship, seize tender opportunities, and abide by existing laws. Moderators emphasized the significance of acquiring specialized entrepreneurship skills through tailored training to enhance women’s expertise in the field.

GPVLF’s recommendations are clear and incisive. They call upon financial institutions to ease access to financing for women entrepreneurs by providing favorable repayment terms and advocate for the establishment of mentoring platforms by partners to foster intergenerational knowledge exchange among women entrepreneurs.

The appeal to the Congolese state is equally crucial, urging the implementation of specific measures to support young female entrepreneurs in the country. Acknowledging the pivotal role of women entrepreneurs in the DRC’s economic and social development, GPVLF reaffirms its commitment to creating an enabling environment for their growth. This includes promoting their leadership, innovation capacity, and contribution to the nation’s sustainable development.

In conclusion, the event organized by GPVLF highlighted the challenges and aspirations of women entrepreneurs in the DRC, calling for action, solidarity, and concrete measures to support and enhance women’s entrepreneurial potential in the country. The quest for equal opportunities and women’s empowerment in entrepreneurship is more pertinent than ever.
