Across Africa, millions of women are the backbone of agriculture growing food, running enterprises, and driving progress in their communities. Yet many face barriers that limit their potential: unequal access to markets, financing, and opportunities to learn or connect. VALUE4HER was created to change that story.
An initiative of AGRA, VALUE4HER is building a continent-wide movement of women agripreneurs who are transforming Africa’s agriculture one business at a time. Through mentorship, finance, trade, technology, and knowledge, the platform provides the tools and networks women need to grow stronger, scale sustainably, and lead Africa’s agricultural transformation.
Five pillars. Designed around what women agripreneurs need most.
Every woman agripreneur’s journey is different, but each one needs the right mix of support, opportunity, and connection to thrive. VALUE4HER’s programs are built around five pillars that address these needs, creating pathways for women to access markets, finance, knowledge, technology, and networks.
