The Mastercard Foundation Health Collaborative is Collaborating with Sinapi Aba Savings and Loans Limited to engage women in the informal business sector on effective management practices.
The meeting afforded the Collaborative the opportunity to share its Health Entrepreneurship plan and to learn from the challenges and successes of participants.
This will therefore inform the ideals in the soon-to-be-introduced Masters in Health Entrepreneurship.
The lead for the Health Entrepreneurship pillar, Prof. Wilberforce Owusu-Ansah noted the deliberations will ensure the majority of the scholarship beneficiaries, of which 80 percent are women, will be guided in their training.
"We needed to engage the women in business, look at the challenges so that in our terms to train people, we'll factor in some of the challenges into the programme so that those people wouldn't go through the same kind of challenges," he said.
Sinapi Aba Savings and Loans Ltd has been involved in helping women in the informal business sector access financial resources to sustain their businesses.
Chief Programme Officer, Sinapi Aba Savings and Loans Limited, Mrs. Joyce Owusu-Dabo believes the collaboration will also help the women find solutions to their challenges.
"This Collaboration with the Collaborative will help the women to identify solutions to the challenges they have in driving their businesses," she noted.
