Project Report | Dec 9, 2008
December 2008 Update

By Katherine Zavala | Coordinator of Programs

OWDEB has observed that generating gender awareness through training and workshops is reducing discrimination against women. They report that female mobility and empowerment have increased through OWDEB-IDEX support in the form of counseling, training and capital for income generation.

One example of workshop success is the recent training on marketing management for twenty-eight female Group Leaders. Eight of the women are already applying knowledge gained to improve their small business management in selling clothes, flower and poultry, as well as Rickshaw rentals in rural areas.
