Building & Empowering
Building and Empowering stands for the training and development of entrepreneurs in developing countries. By means of further training, their knowledge is to be expanded and their basic requirements for healthy growth of their business activity are to be strengthened. Through the joint commitment, jobs are to be created and the entrepreneurial activity is to be improved in terms of quality and quantity. The idea of Building and Empowering was founded by committed people in Switzerland and Cameroon with a Christian background. Participation is open to all denominations and ethnicities.

Our goal
Building and Empowering wants to support and motivate an entrepreneur in his/her work with training offers. The entrepreneurs control the commitment and the processes themselves and they also have to raise the funds themselves. Building and Empowering engages in the following 3 areas:
network
Entrepreneurs meet and share their problems.
They want to develop together and, thanks to the close exchange, also support each other.
training courses
As an organization we offer training on various topics.
The topics are defined and published annually by the countries and their members.
coaching
There is also the possibility of personal coaching as an entrepreneur.
In these talks, topics about his company, such as questions about further development and processes, can be discussed in confidence.
