Who We Are

The Christian Women Entrepreneurs’ Network in Africa (CWENA)

CHRISTIAN WOMEN EMPOWERMENT IN ACTION

CWENA is an organisation for women by women. The heart of this ministry is to serve the women of Africa by encouraging, equipping and facilitating the realization of their entrepreneurial dreams and goals. We are aware of the many challenges that African women face in life but we believe in the power of networks. We believe that when women flourish, their communities will flourish too. Women are primary caregivers and we believe that by caring for them, one is caring for society as well. CWENA commits itself to the economic empowerment of women in Africa.

Since 2013 CWENA has representatives from many African countries such as South Africa, Cameroon, Kenya, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Tanzania, DRC, Uganda, Nigeria, Rwanda, Lesotho, Gabon, just to name but a few. These representatives are equipped and encouraged to reach out to their respective communities and countries.
