CBI, part of the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs, is the Centre for the Promotion of Imports from developing countries. We frequently write articles for CBI based on interviews with their experts and with entrepreneurs from developing countries. This one is about women’s role in Nigeria’s shea industry.

The sector employs many women. Yet, their position in the industry is vulnerable. An innovative training project in the Nigerian shea industry is opening up a better future for over 1,000 women.

We have collaborated with Rebelieve on several projects, especially in the field of writing texts and articles. They combine good writing and communication skills, and they proactively think about what is best for the project. Also, they’re not at all fazed by short lead times. In short, a great agency to work with if, like us, you want to serve your constituency at a high level.
