DeBeers, UN avail P8million to support women entrepreneurs

The announcement was made at a Summit in Gaborone, convened by De Beers, which focuses on the advancement of women business leaders in Botswana and southern Africa.

In the Okavango Delta, De Beers and UN Women will work with the NGO Adore Little Children Botswana (ALCB), which provides support to women and children in Ngarange Village. The partnership will extend ALCB’s existing women’s economic empowerment programmes, which focus on improving livelihoods through permaculture programmes that produce fresh vegetables for local communities.
