Brazil and Morocco explore enhanced cooperation in women's entrepreneurship

The event, organized around International Women's Day, brought together institutional actors, experts, and women entrepreneurs to foster concrete and lasting partnerships. Ambassador of Brazil to Morocco, Alexandre Guido Lopes Parola, emphasized that women's full participation in the economy is crucial for societal prosperity and highlighted the potential of the Morocco-Brazil partnership for sharing expertise and creating synergies. Leïla Doukali, president of the Association of Women Business Leaders of Morocco, stressed the strategic importance of this initiative, noting that women entrepreneurs still face structural obstacles like access to financing and sociocultural constraints.

She called for strengthening cooperation mechanisms, including mentorship programs and business bridges, to overcome these challenges.

The discussions underscored the need to invest in women's skills and reinforce their presence in various productive sectors as essential actors for sustainable and inclusive economic development.
