Meet Amina. This founder is on a mission to fuel women’s empowerment and gender equity in Africa using photography as the catalyst. Amina came to Canada in 1972 as a refugee from Uganda and grew up connected to two vastly different countries and cultures. Her love of photography led her to spend 15 years in the film in TV industry until she founded Cameras for Girls. Through this nonprofit, participants receive a camera to keep and take part in a 4-phase photography and business-skills program to support their career goals. Tune in to hear about this incredible org that has successfully trained 47 girls in Uganda and created pathways for 65% of them to have full-time paid work in photography-related careers📸
