The Women In Africa JAMII Femmes Programme 2023 for African women Entrepreneurs ($USD 10,000 grant per country)

Application Deadline:   30 June 2023 at midnight GMT+0 

The JAMII Femmes initiative aims to increase the impact of African women entrepreneurs on the African economy and to support the creation of innovative solutions for sustainable development that will contribute to positive change in Africa by improving the quality of life for tens of thousands of people.

JAMII Femmes is a great opportunity to develop skills, access a grant and join a network of 7000 women.

Requirements

• The call for applications is open for women in Algeria, Egypt and South Africa!

Implementation of the program

For this second year, the Coca-Cola Foundation and Women In Africa are offering a multi-phase program to 7,000 women in three countries.

Phase 1

• Education: access to the Honoris United Universities Certificate (cf curriculum) and masterclasses of experts for 7000 women

This program is inclusive and at the same time selective. That’s why the Education Pillar, which is extremely important for women entrepreneurs, is open to both new and experienced women entrepreneurs. With this we also hope to create a community where experienced women entrepreneurs can also inspire those who start.

As the program progresses, the selection criteria will focus on entrepreneurial performance.
