Empowering Women Entrepreneurs Through Business Development Training
Empowering Women Entrepreneurs Through Business Development Training
Through our Financially Empowering Microloans for Women (FEM) Program, we support women in rural Malawi to grow their dreams. With microloans, the women start and grow small businesses, build confidence, and achieve financial independence. But financial support alone is not enough. This is why this week, our Business Development Program organized a special training for FEM participants, with support from our partners at Opulence Malawi. These trainers brought valuable skills, experience, and energy to help the women strengthen their business knowledge and leadership capacity.
The Power of Partnership
At Orant, working together with local trainers is a key part of how we make our programs strong and sustainable. Trainers from Opulence bring a wealth of experience in business management, marketing, and entrepreneurship. By involving them, we ensure that our participants learn practical and locally relevant lessons, things they can immediately apply in their daily lives and businesses. The trainers from Opulence shared examples of how women in other areas have grown their businesses, inspiring our FEM participants to dream bigger and set clear goals for their futures.
During the training sessions, women also learned important business topics such as budgeting, saving, record-keeping, customer care, and marketing. The sessions were interactive, giving participants a chance to share their own experiences and learn from one another.
By connecting women with local trainers, we are also helping them build networks and relationships. This opens doors to new opportunities, partnerships, and even markets for their products and services.
Creating Long-Term Impact
The collaboration between Orant and Opulence shows that partnership is powerful. Together, we are not just giving women financial support, we are equipping them with the tools, skills, and confidence they need to sustain and grow their own businesses.
When women are empowered, they reinvest in their families, educate their children, and strengthen their communities. The ripple effects of this training will go far beyond the classroom, it will transform lives for years to come.
At Orant Charities Africa, we remain committed to building partnerships that create lasting change. With every training, every mentor, and every empowered woman, we are one step closer to achieving a future of economic independence and community growth.
