President Biden, the legacy of your presidency is at stake, @potus. The $14.3 billion proposed for Israel, combined with the annual $3.8 billion, is morally indefensible amidst indiscriminate attacks on civilians. History will scrutinize this moment. Demand a Ceasefire NOW.

@JoGray100 I LOVE ELEPHANTS!! (I spent a semester in Kenya in college. There’s nothing like seeing them in person). Thanks for sharing.

This Thursday, @MinutodeDios will host an event where entrepreneurs in Colombia will share their stories alongside the volunteer mentors from @EnelGroup who have accompanied them over the last three months. This is part of a @YouthBizInt project in 4 countries. #SOSMentoring

I never cease to be in awe of the inspiring work of @YouthBizInt member @EscuelasManqa, working through food to drive sustainability, entrepreneurship, employment, and pride in cultural identity.

During the launch of the project #Puentes for rural youth in Colombia, Bolivia, and Honduras, I shared the context in Latin America, where youth unemployment rates sadly grew to 30% in the pandemic. But I'm smiling bc of the inspiring stories of youth overcoming the challenges.

Our #mentoring programme with @EnelGroup volunteers continues, supported by our members @ong_ae, @MinutodeDios, Perspektiva, & @ybspain.

During the “Checklist for business in crisis” session, #entrepreneur Monalisa told her story & received mentor advice on overcoming crises.

[Christina Kappaz @ckappaz]

I'm honored to be part of this project and very appreciative of the @EnelGroup employees who will volunteer their time as mentors to help young entrepreneurs in Latin America and Spain. @ybspain @MinutodeDios @ong_ae @perspektivaPeru #SOSmentoring #putamentorinyourlife

[Youth Business International @YouthBizInt]

Mentoring can be the difference between business success and failure – even more so in times of crisis.

We are delighted to partner with @ENELGroup to provide crucial #mentoring support to struggling youth-led businesses in Chile, Colombia, Peru & Spain.

Q3. How does @qwballies empower African #queer womxn in business? Thread 👇🏿

#LGBTHM21 @Energiserbunni

[Christina Kappaz @ckappaz]

Thanks @KemoMoloko for helping @YouthBizInt bring attention to the importance of supporting queer womxn entrepreneurs. Incredible to know that Kenya alone loses 1.7% of its GDP annually due to LGBT discrimination! Working together, we can change this

[Youth Business International @YouthBizInt]

Q1. Why #queer womxn in business? From a survey conducted with 500+ queer womxn #entrepreneurs within our network, we discovered that 48% stated LBTQ+ discrimination as a key barrier to starting and running their businesses.

#LGBTHM21 @KemoMoloko

[Youth Business International @YouthBizInt]

Next week @qwballies will be taking over our Twitter account to share their expertise working with LGBTQIA+ and African womxn #entrepreneurs. We're looking forward to having them share their knowledge & skills with us!

Join us📆: Wed 24, 12pm-1pm (GMT).
