Empowa: Unlocking Africa’s Housing Opportunity

Empowa is a Cardano-based project that uses blockchain technology to unlock the $1 trillion affordable housing opportunity in Africa. Within the project’s first full year, they were able to increase the home loan market in Mozambique by 5% and have already confirmed a launch in Nigeria. As an earn-with-impact RealFi project, those who support the project earn rewards generated from the lease-to-own monthly payments made by tenants on the ground.
