Entrepreneurs’ luncheon to provide networking platform
November 19, 2020 / Bester Kayaye
One of the Africa’s non-profit organisations working on fostering the agenda of emerging entrepreneurs, Kukaya Foundation, will Saturday host a luncheon for participants gracing the Global Entrepreneurs Week (GEW) commemoration currently underway in Blantyre, Malawi.
Speaking in an interview with Mining and Trade Review, CEO for the Zimbabwe based foundation Ruzivo Chipeta said the luncheon will be held at Dzuka hub in Blantyre.
She explained that the event will create a platform for local entrepreneurs to share ideas and experiences to inspire future innovators and entrepreneurs in Malawi.
“Our mission as an organization is to inspire people to dream, believe, design, create and own their life stories in a way that impacts the world positively,” she said promising that activities during the luncheon will not only inspire future entrepreneurs but will also create networks that can bear powerful collaborations and partnerships.
Chipeta explained that the word ‘Kukaya’ means ‘home’ and in the context of the Foundation, it represents an African proverb that says; “Children are raised by the village where everyone in the society has a role to raise, mentor and empower young people to become responsible adults”.
Kukaya Foundation operates in 12 African countries where it promotes innovation, creativity and leadership among high school youths.
The GEW commemorations are held across the globe for one week every November. Participants are inspired through campaigns to explore their potential as self-starters, innovators and job creators who can bring ideas to life, drive economic growth and expand human welfare.
As part of commemorations, local entrepreneurs will also be given an opportunity to take part in the #IAmAnEntrepreneur 40 seconds video challenge and the winner will receive a free trip to the next Global Entrepreneurship Congress in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia in March 2021.

Rehabilitation:
The establishment of a stable and self-sustaining ecosystem, but not necessarily the one that existed before mining began. In many cases, complete restoration may be impossible, but successful remediation, reclamation, and rehabilitation can result in the timely establishment of a functional ecosystem.

Remediation:
The cleanup of the contaminated area to safe levels by removing or isolating contaminants. At mine sites, remediation often consists of isolating contaminated material in pre-existing tailings storage facilities, capping tailings and waste rock stockpiles with clean topsoil, and collecting and treating any contaminated mine water if necessary.
