ETHIOPIA: HELPING WOMEN ENTREPRENEURS SUCCEED, ONE CHALLENGE AT A TIME

Meseret, a woman entrepreneur, knows a thing or two about promoting growth. As the owner of 3M-A private elementary school in the Ethiopian city of Dire Dawa, she not only fosters the development of young minds but also oversees the expansion of the school itself. What started out as a single kindergarten class in 2009, with 30 students and three employees, has now grown into a school serving children up to Grade 8, with 462 students and 31 staff.
