Meet the young women from all over Africa who are making a difference in their communities. This article from Quartz Africa announces the women included in this year's Africa Innovators List. This year, Quartz acknowledges over two dozen young women from many different regions that harness their time and energy to bring economic development, business opportunities, and wellbeing to the people they serve. These young leaders are engaged in many different kinds of projects, from insurance to climate change activism.

The article includes essays and other readings on the current state of female empowerment on the continent of Africa, alongside links to social media to learn more about the individuals discussed on the webpage.
