We’re building a global sisterhood
54 Women in 54 African countries by 2027
We’re connecting women across Africa with Businesses that care — creating opportunities that uplift communities and transform how impact is done.
What is Dada Dunia? | Dah-dah Doo-nee-yah
Dada Dunia comes from Swahili, where Dada means sister and Dunia means world.
Together, it reflects exactly who we are — a sisterhood of women across the world, rising together.
We’re building an ecosystem where African women, who’ve been systemically undervalued, are now stepping up as trusted partners to Businesses that are doing meaningful work.
They bring care, precision, and skill. The businesses bring fair pay, respect, and opportunity.
That exchange — that balance — is what Dada Dunia stands for.

How We Work
We work through two main partnership models - both designed to meet you where you are and grow with you.
Solo Founders
(Project Based Support)
Perfect for founders or small teams who need flexible, outcome-driven support on specific goals.
Whether you’re launching a campaign, refining your systems, or need an extra set of hands for admin or creative work — we build a project plan around your needs.
Starting at CAD 1,850 per month.
You’ll work directly with a dedicated Dada who can tap into our wider network of specialists for design, content, or tech as needed.
■
Retainer Based Partnerships
(Long-Term, Adaptive Support)
For growing businesses that want consistent, reliable support across multiple areas — without the cost or stress of hiring full-time staff.
Retainers range from CAD 3,500 – 5,500 per month and include access to our collective of skilled Dadas who adapt as your business evolves.
Need a new skill on your team? We’ll hire, train, and onboard the right Dada for you at no extra cost — so you always have the right person, right when you need them.
