Inequality: students in Austria or the USA can buy great books for less than $5 and access essential knowledge almost for free. Meanwhile most African countries import books instead of producing them and governments tax them. Books are luxuries that African students can’t afford.
Each year, @BeninInvestment is the meeting place for economic actors in Benin. The forum presents investment opportunities in all sectors of activity in the country. This 4th edition of the BIF is held under the theme: "Benin, the land of your projects".

Young women are leading efforts within their communities to prevent the outbreak of violent conflict, recover from crises, and build peaceful, tolerant communities, yet most peace and security interventions targeting “youth” prioritize young men, leaving young women out.

'The revolution and women’s liberation go together. We do not talk of women’s emancipation as an act of charity or because of a surge of human compassion. It is a basic necessity for the triumph of the revolution. Women hold up the other half of the sky.' - Thomas Sankara

Sustainable agriculture cannot be achieved without addressing gender inequality. Gender equality is an effective strategy for economic growth and poverty reduction.
Efforts to promote gender equality in the agricultural sector will be in vain if women farmers remain disempowered in the household. @IFAD is using the household methodologies (HHMs) to tackle the issue in the rural areas of Rwanda.
