Les candidatures sont ouvertes pour l’édition 2027 du Cartier Women’s Initiative.

À travers l’Afrique et au-delà, des femmes entrepreneures développent des solutions qui répondent à des besoins réels — souvent avec des ressources limitées, mais avec des idées puissantes.

Chez Afrilanthropy, nous avons eu l’opportunité de travailler étroitement avec nombre d’entre elles, en particulier en Afrique de l’Ouest francophone.

C’est aujourd’hui notre troisième année d’engagement aux côtés des entrepreneures de la région, et la première fois que nous étendons notre action aux pays lusophones, ouvrant la voie à encore plus de voix et de parcours.

Une chose revient souvent dans leurs témoignages :
cette expérience va bien au-delà du financement.

Il s’agit de croire en son idée, d’être visible, et de se connecter à des personnes qui vous aident à grandir.

Si vous développez un projet à impact, cela peut être la prochaine étape pour vous.

Postulez ici : https://www.cartierwomensinitiative.com/

Clôture des candidatures : 16 juin 2026.

Applications are now open for the 2027 edition of the Cartier Women’s Initiative.

Across Africa and beyond, women entrepreneurs are building solutions that respond to real needs—often with limited resources, but with powerful ideas.

At Afrilanthropy, we’ve had the chance to work closely with many of them—especially women entrepreneurs across Francophone West Africa.

This is now our third year supporting women entrepreneurs in the region, and the first time we are expanding to Lusophone countries, opening the door to even more voices and stories.

And one thing comes up again and again: this experience is not just about funding.

It’s about believing in your idea, being seen, and connecting with people who help you grow.

If you are building something with impact, this could be your next step.

Deadline: 16 June 2026

Soutenir les femmes entrepreneures est essentiel pour construire des économies plus résilientes et inclusives.

Meet Our Program Manager 🌍✨
At Afrilanthropy, impact doesn’t happen by chance — it’s driven by people like Deolinda Martins .
As Project Manager of the Women for Women initiative, funded by the Cartier Women’s Initiative, Deolinda leads the programme’s accelerator with clarity and vision. Since 2024, she has been connecting social entrepreneurs across West and Central Africa to key resources — supporting their ongoing work and initiatives.
What defines her is not just what she does, but how she shows up.
Calm.
Always smiling.
Always one step ahead.
Structured, forward-thinking and innovative, she has successfully led Cohorts 1, 2 and 3 — consistently going above and beyond to support every entrepreneur and strengthen the programme.
With a strong academic background from Harvard University and Sciences Po Paris, and over 15 years of experience across UN agencies and NGOs, she brings both depth and global perspective, connecting people and purpose across cultures.
Beyond the work?
Dance. Music. Singing.
From classical to Brazilian and Cuban rhythms.
Moments by the sea 🏖️ and a good book 📖
At Afrilanthropy, Deolinda doesn’t just manage a programme.
She makes it matter.
