Empowering Rural Women: A Resounding Success With Laerryblue Media, Laerryblue Foundation and TechHerfrica

Laerryblue Media is filled with gratitude for the opportunity to partner with TechHerfrica for the inaugural PoliServe Dialogue, held on October 15th, in celebration of the International Day of Rural Women. This groundbreaking event united stakeholders to discuss the unique challenges faced by rural women in Nigeria and to explore actionable solutions that can make a real difference.

The theme of the event, “Enhancing Livelihoods of Rural Women through Stakeholder Collaboration,” struck a powerful chord. It is essential to recognize the critical role women play in nation-building and to work together to break down the barriers they face.

Throughout the dialogue, we highlighted several key areas of focus:

  • Business Formalization for Rural Women Entrepreneurs: We discussed the importance of helping women formalize their businesses to access more resources and opportunities.
  • Innovative Banking Solutions for Financial Inclusion: Financial barriers often limit rural women’s growth. We explored banking solutions that can help these women gain access to necessary financial services.
  • Bridging the Digital Divide: Technology is vital for progress. We emphasized the need to bridge the digital gap so that rural women can connect with broader markets and resources.
  • Climate Resilience and Sustainable Agriculture: Climate change affects everyone, especially those in rural areas. We discussed strategies for sustainable agricultural practices that can help women adapt and thrive.
  • Addressing Gender-Based Violence: It’s crucial to tackle gender-based violence as a significant barrier to women’s empowerment. We shared insights on creating safer environments for women in rural communities.

The energy in the room was electric. Policymakers, private sector leaders, advocates, and rural women all came together to share their experiences and expertise. This vibrant exchange underscored the importance of collaboration in driving meaningful change.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to TechHerfrica for creating this important platform. Laerryblue Media is committed to amplifying the voices of rural women and supporting initiatives that empower them to thrive.

Together, we can make a difference and foster a brighter future for rural women in Nigeria!
