Business training in the Democratic Republic of Congo

Women entrepreneurs in the Democratic Republic of Congo are an undeniable economic force, because they actively participate in growth, innovation, job creation and the fight against poverty. More often these women encounter several economic, legal and socio-cultural constraints that hinder them from embarking on an entrepreneurial career. The lack of education and professional training for women excludes them from the development process. This is why several structures and organizations offer business training to women entrepreneurs and those who aspire to entrepreneurship.
