Project Details
Muso Jigi is an independent women's advocacy organization operating in Markala, Mali a town about an hour north of the regional capital Sego (by bus, not donkey cart). Muso Jigi is a women's cooperative that provides local women not only with the means to make personal income, but the group also provides training and solidarity. Muso Jigi enterprises include a tailoring cooperative, a dried foods manufacturing and selling operation, literacy and numeracy education, a cereal bank operation, and so much more. The inspirational successes of Muso Jigi led to the development of African Sky's first ever "Mothers and Daughters Summit" for January 2011, an event that Muso Jiigi will host in Markala.
In 2009 African Sky provided Muso Jigi with a social enterprise donation to support the organizations efforts to increase their production of local dried foods (tomato, onion, mango, etc.).
