Develop Sustainable Communities by Design: Stabilize, Grow, Prosper!

Info

United Village Global (UVG) is an industry association organized in March 2024 by and for its member organizations: alliance partners, affiliate offices, professionals, companies, and learning institutions that share a mission to empower Youth and Women in or around villages and townships to stabilize, grow, and prosper. UVG uses bottom-top sustainable development approach to leverage the village's social infrastructure as a foundation for stabilizing, growing, and generating surpluses from manufacturing and exporting. UVG acts as an umbrella for its members to integrate and mobilize building and infrastructure systems that will enable local stakeholders to own and operate these assets and introduce local products and services to a global and circular value chain, without waste. Our alternative approach to sustainable community development is organized in three phases: 1. stabilize (give hope) 2. grow (give faith) and 3. prosper (give back). We focus on projects that solidify local teams providing: advocacy, capacity building and cooperative banking services in partnership with alliance partners and affiliate offices. As part of capacity building, we will offer employability and entrepreneurial services through hands-on vocational educational training to the youth who are tomorrow’s leaders.

    “Women are the architects of change, and their dreams have the power to transform societies.” “A woman with a dream can change the world. Let’s support and uplift every woman’s aspirations.” “The strength of a nation lies in the education and empowerment of its women.” These quotes above sum up my experience these past few days, seeing women excelling in different aspects.We have worked so hard to promote gender equality and inclusivity in the sports industry. However we need to put in more effort so that women's voices can be heard and not to be frowned upon.

    Our United Village Global (UVG) - Association board member, Ambassador Tegla Loroupe is speaking out for capacity-building for women and youth, a subject very dear to the UVG mission. For those of you who do not know Tegla's rise to fame, she "ran her way out of her village" to be the first African female gold medallist, world champion and record holder in a marathon, replacing Norwegian Ingrid Kristiansen, then the record holder: The news at the time said: "Loroupe beat Ingrid's record Rotterdam: Tegla Loroupe from Kenya ran to the winning time of 2.20.47 in the Rotterdam marathon on Sunday, and thus Ingrid Kristiansen finally lost her last world record. On Tuesday, Kristiansen's 2.21.06 from London in 1985 would have celebrated his 13th anniversary." (source: NTB, Tuesday, February 25, 2003 at 1:15 p.m)

    Tourism needs young talent! Neighboring countries to Gambia — “the Smiling Coast of Africa” — include Cape Verde and Senegal, gearing up for a booming tourism industry while Gambia leads the way. My co-panelist at the ENFA Business Summit 2024, Amina Touray, Director of Tourism Promotions - Nordics, Gambia Tourism Board, is shaping the future of tourism in her region. She advocates for affordable housing and envisions innovative tourism infrastructure like hotels, eco-lodges, and cultural villages in harmony with nature. Investment opportunities abound in Gambia's tourism sector, from water parks to zoos. This small country, nestled by the river Gambia’s flood plains, offers a fertile ground for growth and development. Join us at United Village Global (UVG) Village Global to collaborate with local talents like Amina, who envision a sustainable future for their country. Let’s work together towards a brighter tomorrow! #Tourism #Investment #SustainableDevelopment
