Visit to the Women’s Development Association (WODA)

27.10.23

On Thursday, the 26th of October, The Aurora Impact team paid a visit to the Women’s Development Association (WODA). The goal was clear: to ignite a spark of inspiration and shed light on the exciting world of entrepreneurship as a viable career path for women. The visit culminated in an engaging discussion, leaving both the Aurora Impact team and the enthusiastic group of girls at WODA looking forward to future collaborations.

The heart of the conversation centered on the essence of entrepreneurship and its potential to transform skills into lucrative businesses. The Aurora Impact team shared their experiences, insights, and success stories with the attentive audience.

What stood out during this interaction was the remarkable enthusiasm and engagement displayed by the girls. It became evident that this was a group of young minds hungry for knowledge and eager to explore opportunities beyond the conventional.

In a promising development, the Aurora Impact team is thrilled to announce that a select group of girls from WODA will have the opportunity to dive deeper into entrepreneurship. From the 22nd to the 24th of November 2023, these aspiring entrepreneurs will participate in a three-day training program hosted by the Aurora Impact team. During this immersive experience, they will gain valuable insights, practical skills, and the confidence needed to embark on their entrepreneurial journeys.
