Two young women living with disabilities, Lusanda Meje and Sesethu Dingaan, are building entrepreneurial ventures after participating in Engen’s New Venture Creation learnership. The outlets describe their experiences as examples of how structured training and support can help translate business ideas into practical activities.
The articles frame the learnership as a pathway to empowerment and independence, highlighting the participants’ resilience in navigating challenges related to disability. Both stories emphasize that entrepreneurship creates opportunities beyond employment, enabling participants to take ownership of their economic futures. While the coverage focuses on their personal journeys, the shared theme across sources is the role of the learnership in developing skills and confidence to pursue business goals.
The two profiles differ primarily in how they narrate individual circumstances and motivations, but they align on the overarching outcome: each woman gains support through the Engen program and moves forward with entrepreneurial plans.
