It aims to broaden professional opportunities for women in sectors historically dominated by men, explained a Sputnik Africa correspondent.For participant Amana Tchilalo, this initiative represents a rare opportunity to turn long-shelved ambitions into reality.“It’s a wonderful idea and a great opportunity for us women to be able to realize our dreams,” she said.
