Economic independence is a cornerstone of women's empowerment. Encouraging women to participate in the formal workforce is necessary for a more free and just society. With respect to the local group "Wend-Songda" there is very little to encourage. Women declare themselves ready and waiting for nothing more than starting capital.
Rural areas often lack access to formal financial institutions, making it difficult for rural entrepreneurs to access the capital they need to start or grow their businesses. Empowering rural individuals to start their business will foster economic growth at the grassroots level. Together with this, providing women access to credit can enhance their economic independence, improve their social status, and contribute to gender equality.
For this reason the Guardavanti team has no doubt, we will support this project until the necessary amount is reached. We are confident that our readers equally support the importance of being financially independent for a woman.
Thank you for being part of this journey.
