Gender Diversity
Pledge
During AfricArena Unconference in Kenya in September 2023, a crucial topic emerged around the need to amplify investment in female founders. In response Digital Collective Africa has taken proactive steps towards fostering diversity and inclusion within the tech ecosystem.
About The Pledge
We have crafted the following pledge, along with specific fund-related objectives, aimed at driving meaningful change. Your endorsement of this initiative would be invaluable in advancing our shared commitment to empowering female entrepreneurs. We would be honored to have your esteemed endorsement for this endeavor. Your support will play a pivotal role in creating an ecosystem that truly champions diversity and unlocks the full potential of African innovation.

*This voluntary Pledge is merely a starting point. We believe that by putting a stake in the ground, and publicly declaring our commitments, we will create a baseline. We hope that venture capital firms will aim high, and there should be no shame in missing a target. The most important measure will be that the trend line scales rapidly upward in future years.
