We did it. 🎉
Today, Because She Can is celebrating 20 incredible women who completed the Mentor Preparation Program in partnership with Digi-Equal Africa and the CoalitionforDigitalEquality.
20 women. 5 workshops. 3 months. One community that will last far beyond this program.
These women showed up. Every session, every exercise, every uncomfortable conversation, every role play, every case study. They did the work and they did it well.
They came in as women in tech with experience worth sharing.
They left as mentors.
From building confidence and beating imposter syndrome, to learning how to set boundaries, raise their visibility and practise mentoring in real time. This cohort went through something real and we are so proud of every single one of them.
A special congratulations to each of our 20 mentors. Your certificates are earned. Your seats on the Digi-Equal Africa platform are ready. And the women you will go on to mentor are lucky to have you.
We also want to take a moment to thank the people who made this partnership possible.
To Eunice and Wendy at Digi-Equal Africa and the CoalitionforDigitalEquality. Thank you for trusting Because She Can to deliver this program. Your vision for increasing the number of female mentors in African tech is one we are proud to be part of. We hope this is the first of many collaborations.
To FlourishHub Uganda, thank you for bringing us into your world and trusting our mentors to support your startup teams. Watching those sessions happen was one of the highlights of this entire program.
And to our brilliant facilitators — Otema Yirenkyi, Bella Amfo, Mae Zynenwartel, Mercy Dufie Boateng and Kweyakie Blebo. Thank you for pouring your expertise, your energy, and your hearts into every session.
This is what it looks like when women in tech invest in each other.
We are just getting started. 🌍
