The goal: reach women often excluded from traditional support systems and give them the means to develop entrepreneurial activities locally.<\/p>\n<p>This strategy confirms EGC\u2019s ambition to make female entrepreneurship a lever for inclusive and sustainable economic development.<\/p>\n<p>Since the program\u2019s launch, more than <strong>500 women<\/strong> have already benefited from <em>Women of the Future<\/em> \u2014 some of whom have become local role models in entrepreneurship and leadership.<\/p>\n<p>For this 3rd cohort, the emphasis is on supporting women in rural areas across diverse sectors \u2014 crafts, agro-food processing, small businesses, and more. The dual objective: foster viable economic projects and amplify the social and community impact of participating women.<\/p>\n<h2>An initiative aligned with social responsibility and territorial impact<\/h2>\n<p>The <em>Women of the Future<\/em> program is fully aligned with Eramet\u2019s CSR and societal impact policy: through initiatives like this, the company reaffirms its role as a committed actor, not only in mining operations but also in Senegal\u2019s economic and social development.<\/p>\n<p>By supporting female entrepreneurship, EGC contributes to diversifying local economic activities, promoting inclusion, encouraging financial autonomy, and creating new opportunities for women \u2014 whether in urban or rural settings.<\/p>\n<p>With the launch of this new cohort, Eramet Grande C\u00f4te renews its commitment to fostering women\u2019s economic empowerment and driving inclusive, sustainable development rooted in local communities.<\/p>\n<p>The <em>Women of the Future<\/em> program is a concrete illustration of Eramet\u2019s determination to go beyond the strictly mining framework and actively, responsibly contribute to Senegal\u2019s social and economic progress.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":52181,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[77,79,92,97],"class_list":["post-52241","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-act-for-positive-mining-en","tag-care-for-people-en","tag-eramet-beyond-en","tag-femmes-davenir-en"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
