Maida Waziri, President of the Voice of Women Entrepreneurs in Tanzania (VoWET), has expressed her excitement about the upcoming visit of Kamala Harris, Vice President of the United States, to Tanzania. According to Waziri, Vice President Harris is a strong advocate for women’s rights, and her visit has the potential to bring many benefits to women and businesses in Tanzania.
During her visit, Vice President Harris can promote women’s empowerment and gender equality by increasing women’s education and employment opportunities. This includes supporting women entrepreneurs and business owners and promoting greater participation of women in political and economic decision-making. Furthermore, her visit can help strengthen the economic relationship between Tanzania and the United States by exploring increased trade and investment opportunities. This can include fostering collaboration and exchange between businesses and entrepreneurs in Tanzania and the United States, which can help to stimulate economic growth and create new job opportunities.
Tanzania is experiencing significant economic growth, with President Samia Suluhu Hassan opening up the economy and promoting investment in key sectors such as agriculture, infrastructure, and energy. This has created new opportunities for businesses and entrepreneurs in Tanzania and increased interest from foreign investors, including the United States. Vice President Harris’ visit to Tanzania can further strengthen this economic cooperation and create new opportunities for collaboration in important areas such as renewable energy and sustainable agriculture
Waziri believes Vice President Harris’s visit to Tanzania is an exciting opportunity to promote gender equality, economic growth, and collaboration in important areas. She is confident that the visit will help to strengthen the long-term relationship between Tanzania and the United States and create new opportunities for collaboration and cooperation in key sectors.
