At NMB Bank, the empowerment of women is deeply rooted in our values and principles. We understand that economic empowerment is fundamental to realizing women's rights, and we are privileged to join hands with the EU Embassy in Zimbabwe and other partners to honor and uplift women in Epworth at the SAFE Market, as part of our Women's Day commemorations.
The SAFE Market, made possible by the EU, serves as a secure platform for local women to sell their goods safely. This initiative enhances economic opportunities and nurtures a supportive environment with a dedicated children's learning area, enabling women to participate in educational activities while caring for their children.
Engaging women at all levels of financial access is crucial. By providing them with platforms and agency, we empower them to enhance their lives, support their households, and contribute to broader economic growth. As the saying goes, "Musha Mukadzi," empowering a woman uplifts not just a household but the entire economy.
The event at the SAFE Market was a joyous celebration of women's economic empowerment and resilience. It featured lively performances, generous giveaways, and meaningful interactions with women from the market and neighboring communities.
Through this collaboration, NMB Bank reaffirms its unwavering commitment to gender equality and women's empowerment. By supporting initiatives like the SAFE Market, we play a pivotal role in fostering a more inclusive and prosperous society.
Together, let's continue to uplift and celebrate the resilience and strength of women in our communities.
