I was deeply honored to have led young Malawian entrepreneurs in a conversation with policy makers in the Malawi Government, discussing how the youth-centric MIP-1 in the Malawi 2063 can be better implemented to be inclusive of the youth.

A few weeks ago, we launched the Musci4Malawi platform. We put out a call for applications, and only about 12% of them were female applicants. Of the selected for our first training – 4 were female, and 6 male. We had to investigate this.
