Economic Resilience for 125 Women and Girls in DRC

The project “Economic resilience for 125 women and girls in DRC” is very crucial as it consists of providing technical training to 125 women and girls on establishing small-scale businesses and IGA activities. It also consists of strengthening socio-economic resilience and economic empowerment through gender-sensitive livelihood initiatives and IGA as well as providing each woman and girl with a simple dignity kit for her monthly hygiene. In addition to the objectives mentioned above, this project has also to provide each woman and girl with small financial support to improve her socio-economic situation through IGA and provide capacity development and coaching to all the beneficiaries of the project.

Being among the women and girls who are directly affected by the conflicts in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, the 125 women and girls would benefit from the outcomes of this project as it must address their socio-economic situation. The project will help these internally displaced women and girls to rise out of poverty, malnutrition, education and provide good healthcare to their children. All the 125 women and girls as well as their families have to improve their socio-economic situation through Income-Generating Activities.

While thanking all those who have already donated to this project, we would like to call up the generosity of other potential donors to support these women and girls in giving their donations. The ten dollars, twenty dollars or more donated, will make a change over the lives of the direct beneficiaries of this project.

We recognize the challenges due to the ongoing crisis situation in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, but we promise to do our best in order implemnt this project and provide narrative and financial report.
