Palestinian Territories
Women and Entrepreneurship
This US State Department-sponsored International Visitor Leadership Program (IVLP) is for ten female entrepreneurs from the Palestinian Territories looking into "Women and Entrepreneurship".
While in Detroit, these leaders are interested in meeting with women entrepreneurs, particularly artisan craftswomen, to better understand the contributions of women to community economic development and the economic empowerment and well-being of women in local U.S. communities and international impact.
Dr. George Swan III
Chair, Detroit Future City
The opportunity to welcome and work with international delegations visiting Detroit provides a very rich experience. To be engaged in this work is significant and very rewarding. The world is becoming smaller every day and Global Ties Detroit contributes greatly in building strong bridges with people and nations across the globe.
