The ECoWYERT Program is a five-year (2025–2030), Mastercard Foundation–funded initiative led by UNDP to build the business, entrepreneurship, and export-readiness capacities of women- and youth-led MSMEs across six African countries (Botswana, DRC, Malawi, South Africa, Zambia, Zimbabwe), so they can access AfCFTA regional trade opportunities. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis via the official form, with applicants placed into one of four categories based on their business stage — but note it provides training/capacity-building rather than direct grant funding.
As candidaturas são analisadas de forma contínua com base nos critérios abaixo. A SAIGE regista a sua intenção de se candidatar — associando esta oportunidade ao perfil da sua empresa — antes de o encaminhar para a candidatura oficial da organização United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), funded by the Mastercard Foundation and co-implemented with the COMESA Federation of Women in Business (COMFWB), the Better Than Cash Alliance (BTCA), and the Trade and Development Fund (TDF). Assim, a sua atividade fica num só lugar e ajuda-nos a apresentar melhores correspondências ao longo do tempo.
