DAKU ACADEMY

Daku Group Academy offers upliftment & advancement of entrepreneurs.

Started in 2018 with young women entrepreneurs, the Daku Group Academy offers the upliftment and advancement of entrepreneurs. Fueled by a leading South African University MANCOSA that boasts an international footprint, and our Radisson Blu partnership. We add value through empowerment programs, incubation and mentorship aimed at empowering entrepreneurs as future leaders.

SOCIAL HOUSING

DAKU has been instrumental in championing social infrastructure.

The PRASA station has led to three station upgrades in the Western Cape with social housing mixed use development. Daku Deed as a Section 21 non-profit, champions the development of mixed residential social infrastructure and housing around South African provinces battling with housing backlogs. The company’s primary purpose is to develop particularly for the disadvantaged members of the community. This includes establishment of mixed residential social housing institutional hubs with quality, affordable rental stock on a sustainable basis. Our mission is to build an organization that is capable of contributing towards the restructuring of South African cities by providing well located, affordable housing accommodation and community services to the low to middle income earners that have been excluded from the formal housing market.

WOMEN IN TRADE PROGRAMME

creating opportunities for women to grow in business.

Since our passion is creating opportunities for women to grow in business, our role as the Executive Chairperson of OWIT SA Chapter is crucial. This decision was a direct result of a presentation by OWIT International and the services they offer towards businesses within their respective countries. The SA Chapter is a Non Profit Membership Organization serving SMMEs, corporate, and individual members as well other organizations. The Chapter is founded by Executive Directors and consists of an advisory board, portfolio Chairperson and ambassador structures. The OWIT SA Ecosystem structure creates partnerships with key stakeholders within the economic sectors. OWIT SA will be working with stakeholders to unpack challenges related to promoting participation of women-owned businesses in international trade, with the focus being on information sharing on available resources to advance women’s economic empowerment working towards increasing women’s advocacy efforts to influence legislation and its implementation, in particular the industry and trade policies sharing information on global value chains and trade policy developments in South Africa and the Southern African Customs Union (Southern African Development Community), the AfCFTA and globally to help increase women participation in international trade and global value chains. This also leads to facilitating intra trade and investment meetings.
