Association of Consecrated Women in Eastern and Central Africa (ACWECA) has called on Catholic Sisters to embrace leadership, innovation and social entrepreneurship as they seek to strengthen their ministries and contribute to Africa\u2019s development.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Speaking in Zambia at the graduation of Sisters who completed the Sisters\u2019 Blended Value Project (SBVP) Social Entrepreneurship Development programme (SEDP), ACWECA Secretary General Sr. Bridgita Samba urged the graduates to approach their ministries with vision, clarity, understanding, and agility as they navigate an increasingly volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous environment.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sr. Samba said the graduates had demonstrated their readiness to take on greater responsibility by acquiring new knowledge and skills in social entrepreneurship, leadership and enterprise development.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYou have come before us as serious people. You have challenged us to take you seriously, and we have taken up the challenge and accept you as serious people in this very VUCA world,\u201d she said.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The SBVP, implemented through a partnership between ACWECA and Strathmore University Business School and supported by the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation, seeks to equip Catholic Sisters with the skills and tools required to transform their social ministries into sustainable social enterprises. The programme has expanded from its initial implementation in Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania and Zambia to include Malawi.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For Sr. Samba, the transition towards social entrepreneurship does not mean abandoning the identity or mission of consecrated women. Rather, it provides an opportunity for Sisters to strengthen the sustainability of their ministries while remaining faithful to their Congregational charisms and their commitment to serving communities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She emphasised that the Sisters&#8217; identity and vocation should remain at the centre of their entrepreneurial journey.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYour identity is your passport. Ambiguity can only be countered with agility, complexity with clarity, uncertainty with understanding, and volatility with vision,\u201d Sr. Samba said.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h3><b>Turning vision into action<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The ACWECA Secretary General challenged the graduates to view their newly acquired skills not simply as academic achievements, but as tools for creating lasting social impact.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She encouraged them to focus less on competing with others and more on becoming effective stewards of the people, resources and ministries entrusted to them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Sisters, she said, should use their enterprises to support human dignity and contribute to the integral development of the people they encounter through their work.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This approach reflects SBVP\u2019s broader philosophy, which seeks to distinguish social entrepreneurship from traditional charity models and to enable Sisters to develop enterprises that generate both social and financial value. ACWECA describes the programme as an opportunity for religious women to strengthen the sustainability of their charisms, ministries and congregations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sr. Samba also reminded the graduates that a vision must be accompanied by action.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cToday, you graduate as social entrepreneurs with a vision. But a vision is just a dream,\u201d she said, encouraging the Sisters to move beyond imagining possibilities and take practical steps towards building sustainable enterprises.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Her message echoed the philosophy associated with Conrad Hilton, whose \u201cDream Big\u201d principle has been incorporated into the SBVP journey. She further encouraged the graduates to embrace resilience, noting that success in social entrepreneurship would require persistence, learning and a willingness to seek guidance.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Graduation as the beginning of a new journey<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rather than presenting graduation as the conclusion of the learning process, Sr. Samba described it as the beginning of a new phase in which the Sisters would have to apply their knowledge to real-world challenges.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYour learning, Sisters, should not stop with your graduation. The real learning begins now,\u201d she said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She urged the graduates not to expect immediate success but to remain open to learning from setbacks, seek professional advice, and continuously improve their enterprises.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This emphasis on continuous learning and adaptation is consistent with SBVP&#8217;s focus on strengthening Sisters&#8217; capacity to respond to changing economic, technological, and social realities. The programme has incorporated training in areas such as leadership, financial management, strategic planning, social entrepreneurship, and market access.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Building sustainable ministries<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A key message from Sr. Samba was the need for the Sisters to become responsible stewards of the resources entrusted to their care.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She challenged them to grow, scale and sustain the ministries operated by their Congregations, while ensuring that their enterprises remain aligned with their respective charisms and missions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The call for sustainability has been central to SBVP since its establishment. ACWECA states that the programme is intended to help Sisters move their ministries towards sustainable social enterprises while maintaining their mission-driven character.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The approach also responds to longstanding challenges facing religious congregations, including financial sustainability and the need to strengthen institutional and entrepreneurial capacity. Previous reporting on the programme has highlighted the project&#8217;s objective of helping Sisters become more self-reliant while continuing to serve vulnerable communities.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Sisters as builders of Africa<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sr. Samba further challenged the graduates to see their work within the broader context of Africa&#8217;s development.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAfrica needs serious builders, as there are enough consumers. You are the builders of Africa,\u201d she said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The message situates social entrepreneurship within a broader development agenda, recognising the role that Sister-led institutions play in education, healthcare, social protection, economic empowerment, and other forms of community service.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Through their Congregations and ministries, consecrated women have established institutions and initiatives that serve communities across the region. SBVP seeks to strengthen the sustainability of these initiatives so they can continue to create social value over the long term.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>A continuing commitment to service<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As the graduates begin the next chapter of their journey, Sr. Samba&#8217;s message placed social entrepreneurship within a larger vocation of service.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The challenge before the Sisters is not simply to establish businesses, but to build sustainable enterprises that remain connected to their mission and create meaningful value for the communities they serve.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The SBVP journey, therefore, represents more than professional training. It is part of a broader effort to equip consecrated women with the knowledge, confidence and entrepreneurial capabilities to sustain their ministries in a changing world.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For the graduating Sisters, the next phase will be defined by how effectively they translate their learning into action, strengthen their enterprises, serve their communities, and use their Congregational charisms to contribute to a more sustainable and inclusive Africa.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Article by Alex Okoth Odhiambo<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":30,"featured_media":51570,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[39,96],"tags":[457],"class_list":["post-51568","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-sbvp-news","tag-sbvp-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v20.2.1 (Yoast SEO v28.6) -
