Ivanka Trump, daughter of the United States President Donald Trump, on Sunday touched down in Ethiopia as part of a government-organized trip to promote the empowerment of women, especially in the ambit of employment and business. She later joined US Agency for International Development representatives at the Ethiopian Coffee Association (USAID). "With USAID support, they are overcoming a lack of access to capital and growing their businesses," she said. Trump met with female coffee entrepreneurs at the Dumoro café in the capital to discuss the opportunities and challenges facing women in the industry. Trump's visit to the Ivory Coast is set to focus on women in the cocoa industry.
