The book “Half the Sky” about women around the world
Good Morning entrepreneurs,
I want to dedicate my post today to speak about the fabulous book of “Half the Sky“, in which the winners of the Pulitzer Nicholas D.Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn, offer a poignant journey through Asia and Africa through the story of women who are changing the world after have been victims of violations of their rights.
Three of these women are from Ashoka . This organization is leading a profound transformation in society.
Women hold up half the sky is a Chinese proverb, however, is above all an aspiration : In much of the world, the girls are uneducated and marginalized, and it is no coincidence that those same countries is where there is the poverty disproportionately and chaos.

Good Morning friends,
With my first coffee in the morning …
Despite the crisis China will meet the objectives of its commitment to support the development of African countries and continue to encourage Chinese companies to increase their investments and business in Africa.
In recent years China has tripled trade with the African continent. The need for African natural resources makes the big powers like the United States, Europe and now the great emerging power of China to move to Africa.
Will benefit the African economy? This causes jobs to Africans?
The african continent, a continent rich in miniral resources and natural resources.
