About
U.S. Embassy Kigali announces the opening of applications for the 2nd cohort of the Academy for Women Entrepreneurs (AWE) training program, a Department of State initiative to support women entrepreneurs globally. Through the academy, Rwanda women entrepreneurs aged 18-35 will receive personalized business mentorship, as well as professional knowledge, tools and networks, in order to turn their ideas into successful businesses.
The program will be carried out by the U.S. Embassy, in partnership with Igire Rwanda Organization and Noble Women. AWE uses DreamBuilder, an online training program on women’s entrepreneurship developed through a partnership between Arizona State University’s Thunderbird School of Management and Freeport-McMoRan. The curriculum teaches women to create their own business plans, understand how to raise capital, and connect with networks of successful business owners.
About
The Academy for Women Entrepreneurs program was created to provide women with the knowledge, networks, and access they need to start and grow successful businesses. The AWE program is a flexible educational opportunity that combines the online platform DreamBuilder with locally provided content, mentoring, and facilitation. Through DreamBuilder, a cohort of women learn core business skills such as strategic planning, marketing and finance, and then discuss the material with local facilitators and business partners.
The program seeks to promote women’s social and economic empowerment, by teaching enterprising women how to launch and scale their businesses. AWE reinforces peer-to-peer learning, networking, and cohesion among the graduating classes of women entrepreneurs, while also demonstrating local business growth. AWE Rwanda has proven to be customized, impactful and a lifetime opportunity for our Kigali and Bugesera graduates. We look forward to reaching out to other participants from other parts of Rwanda.
