I am so honored to know a man like Salah. His life, business and vision are all built to empower women leaders. He was brave enough to point out at a recent international summit that there was an embarrassing absence of female voices on the agenda. *Here he talks about why this needs to change. With our work at Linking the World we have seen this to be true- When women succeed, families succeed. And they lift the community up right along with them. The women I have gotten to know are the most entrepreneurial people I have ever met. Many have had to do it out of sheer survival, but ALL have harnessed a passion, a drive and love into entrepreneurship. And they must navigate the markets on a micro level. I encourage you to support companies like Soap Hope where you can buy your every day items and gifts knowing that your dollars are working overtime, being multiplied to empower women around the globe. When we unleash womens economic potential there are measurable benefits when it comes to jobs, productivity, employment, child nutrition, maternal mortality, literacy –all the factors that ensure breaking a cycle of poverty. soaphope.wordpress/2014/08/07/women-take-the-stage/ — at Linking the World.
