AWITA is conspicuously present in the 36 States and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) of Nigeria with compact year- round activities to drive home the projects and programs of the Federal Government and Regional Commissions towards trade and agriculture. Our activities in the 6 geo-political zones since inauguration have been outstanding. We have chosen the path of Training, Empowerment, Exposure and Mentorship (T.E.E.M.). AWITA is T.E.E.M. for Women in Trade and Agriculture in Nigeria.
The seeds of AWITA were sown not in a conference room, but in the fertile ground of a shared struggle. Across Nigeria, women in trade and agriculture faced a harsh reality: despite their crucial roles, they were marginalized, voiceless, and locked out of opportunities. They were farmers toiling in invisible fields, traders navigating opaque markets, and entrepreneurs facing an uphill battle against inequality.
This was the fertile ground where AWITA sprouted. It wasn’t a top-down initiative, but a grassroots movement fueled by a shared yearning for change. Women came together, not as victims, but as warriors. They saw the untapped potential in their own ranks, the collective power waiting to be unleashed. AWITA was born from this unwavering hope, a beacon for women yearning to claim their rightful place in the economic landscape.
VISION: We envision a future where women navigate the complexities of trade and agriculture with confidence, shattering glass ceilings and building resilient businesses and inclusiveness.
MISSION: To facilitate, promote and catalyze the development and growth of women in trade and agriculture with the informal trade through advocacy, networking, capacity building, and finance necessary to succeed in the marketplace in Nigeria while acting as voice for collective interest and defense.
CORE VALUES: Partnership – Equity – Focus – Integrity – Inclusion
