We have committed to mobilizing $250 million by 2027 to advance women’s economic security across Africa, including $100 million for projects to advance digital gender equality and women’s clean energy contributions, such as through products particularly benefitting women customers or supporting women-led enterprises.

Currently on an Africa tour, Amb.Rahmani has led many initiatives related to women empowerment  and continues to advocate that women empowerment and participation is key to addressing  climate change and positive economic development.

With a strong resolve to address  financing gaps in developing countries,  Delphos has been building bridges between government, Development Financial institution,  investors  and private sector to enable implementation of projects that can change the lives of many ordinary people, with a particular focus on  women. It is embedded in our philosophy that women empowerment must be the bedrock of our efforts towards digital transformation, sustainable infrastructure, and climate resiliency.
