1.0. Business Concept Proposal
1.1. Introduction
Our proposal is based around the potential for Ugandan women to gain financial independence through entrepreneurship. This as an obtainable goal, but it is only obtainable with an initial financial backing from western organisations. We wish to do this not to gain profit, but to assist the growth of a potential industry in a third world country. 1.2. Goal
Our goal is to assist in achieving independence and empowerment in Ugandan women, so that they can gain dignity, and be in a position to provide a better life for themselves and their families. As Littlefield et al explains, “…access to financial services can empower women to become more confident, more assertive, more likely to participate in family and community decisions, and better able to confront systemic gender inequities.”
1.3. Basic overview of the plan
The way we plan to achieve this goal is by investing in mushroom growing, manufacturing and exporting in Uganda, this involves a number of components which we will go into detail about later in this business plan. In doing this women can

    Chorus of Mushrooms Essay

    • 1236 Words
    • 5 Pages

    Hiromi Goto’s Chorus of Mushrooms is an immigration narrative documenting the experiences of three generations of Japanese Canadian women both in Canada and abroad. Goto’s story offers a glimpse into the lives of the Canadian immigrants namely, Naoe, her daughter Keiko and her granddaughter Murasaki along with their successes and failures at cultural integration. Although some believe rejecting their cultural past would provide for a better existence, others feel absolutely incapable of separating themselves from it from the very start. Language, diet and lifestyle serve as forms of cultural expression. In her novel, Goto argues that neither through self-assimilation nor by repression of their roots will Canadian immigrants successfully integrate, but ultimately an embrace of both their past and new Canadian culture will lead them to an empowered coexistence.…

    In the first TED Talk, Paul Stamets discusses how six types of mushrooms may be able to save the world. He states how mushrooms contain antibiotics and some of the best antibiotics that humans use come from mushrooms. He explains how the mycelium fungus plays a key part in cleaning polluted soil, making insecticides, treating smallpox and maybe even various flu viruses. The mycelium fungus is able to absorb oils and in turn, restore natural habitats in the ecosystem. Mushrooms, he states are also able to provide extracts that are able to attack flu viruses such as H1N1, H3N2, and H5N1. Stamets then tells an anecdote that summarizes how extracts from the mycelium fungus is capable of acting as an insecticide that is safer than the more harsh chemicals that are currently used. He finally states that how mycelium converts cellulose into fungal sugars and from that, he came up with Econol, a more environmentally friendly fuel source.…
