HERfrica by She-EO continues to progress steadily as we lay a strong foundation for a mentorship and business support program for African women solopreneurs.

Current Status

• The HERfrica program structure and focus areas have been finalized, with emphasis on mentorship, leadership development, business growth, peer learning, and access to interest-free loans.

• Eligibility criteria and the application process have been clearly defined to guide the selection of fellows and mentors.

• Awareness efforts have begun within the She-EO community to generate interest among potential applicants, mentors, and partners.

• Initial discussions with prospective partners and sponsors are underway to support program delivery.

Progress So Far

• Growing interest from women entrepreneurs, particularly within Nigeria.

• Positive responses from potential mentors and collaborators.

• Planning in progress for training sessions, support circles, and business showcase activities.

Next Steps
