Brooktawit Mulugeta
@brooktawitmulugeta
I lead strategic communications that amplify entrepreneurship, youth employment, and women’s economic participation.
What I'm looking for
I lead communications and visibility for Gebeya Inc.’s Mastercard Foundation-funded Mesirat Program, supporting gig and entrepreneurship ecosystems designed to create one million jobs. My impact storytelling and outreach campaigns contributed to more than 100,000 jobs created nationwide.
I co-developed Mesirat Mahber, a national knowledge-management and community platform offering entrepreneurs curated resources on business development, finance, investment, and policy. I also work with the Ministry of Labor and Skills on policy strategy handovers and support gender-inclusive messaging through the Women at Work Task Force.
Across Reach for Change Ethiopia, 10 Academy, beU Delivery, and Big Dream Ethiopia, I’ve built digital strategies, donor communications, SEO content, campaigns, events, and brand guidelines that strengthen engagement and inclusive development outcomes.
