Economic empowerment is offered to women aged 18 to 45, with a focus on those facing vulnerable circumstances. The project aims to address poverty and unemployment challenges prevalent among poor women residing in underprivileged areas. The ultimate goal is to enhance their economic and social well-being and enable their active involvement in the labor market. This will be accomplished through the provision of specialized training courses designed to improve family income, while also striving to bridge the gender gap in economic participation.
