Greeting from the Minister

Dear applicants and interested persons of the mentoring program Ouissal,

For me, feminist development policy is a matter of justice. Women and girls make up half of the world’s population. They should also have half the power: Women are strong, women have innovative ideas, women have knowledge. No society can afford to forgo this potential if it wants to move forward. When women have equal rights and equal responsibilities, there is less poverty, less hunger and more stability in the world. Therefore, it is worthwhile to strengthen the rights, resources and representation of women and girls. This is where the Ouissal mentoring program comes in. It promotes economic cooperation between young and experienced female entrepreneurs from Germany, North Africa and the Middle East. Please contribute your ideas, your knowledge and your power and become part of the Ouissal network!
