Mauritius evolved from a sugar-cane dependent nation in the 1960s into one of Africa’s most vibrant, diverse economies. We are privileged to be part of Mauritius’ successful development story, and remain committed to supporting the country’s inclusive and resilient growth.

Improving the lives of women & girls begins at home and enhances with support from the whole society. The #Mozambique Gender Assessment report highlights the need for a targeted, muti-sectorial approach to empowering women and girls. Join us👉 https://t.co/SMhOJugb5b

During the #Mozambique Gender Assessment Report launch, @withneysabino said we need to listen to women and girls when making decisions that affect them. I couldn't agree more. We know that when women and girls lead the development agenda, everyone wins. 📖 https://t.co/SMhOJugIUJ

Women are half of the population, yet they are not delivering half of the development impact. It takes everyone's efforts to empower them! Excited to launch the #Mozambique Gender Assessment report which emphasizes ways to leverage their potential: https://t.co/SMhOJugb5b
