Rural women in low and middle income economies tend to be overlooked by society. Despite their creativity and ambitions, they often lack resources and face marketing challenges when building their own small business. Together with Annkathrin Wahbi and Charlotte-Elena Reich we are looking for bottom-up approaches and want to facilitate pathways how to improve their situation and earn a sustainable income.
During the last months, we participated in the Lift-Off competition of the Georg-August-Universität Göttingen. We had the opportunity to visit interesting workshops, benefit from the mentoring program and develop our business idea. Last week, we pitched our business idea "better together" at the finals of the Lift-Off competition. We were honored with the award "Social Entrepreneurship" and received the audience price in the science category! Big thanks to everybody who voted for us and our idea and supported us along the way, but especially to the Lift-Off team.
We are excited for what lies ahead. Teamwork makes the dream work!
