AWE Second Edition

What is the

AWE Program

From October 2021 to March 2022, Douar Tech partners with the US Embassy to Morocco to lead the second edition of the Academy for Women Entrepreneurs with women from the provinces of Chefchaouen, Essaouira, and Taroudant. In six months, 60 women will learn key skills in business and entrepreneurship. This program supports women to gain vital skills to build their business while simultaneously joining a supportive and inclusive community of fellow female entrepreneurs. We focus on knowledge sharing, empathic leadership, relationship building, and local community impact as a key strategy to support the next generation of female entrepreneurs in Morocco.
