Gender empowerment through a new path of resilience in private sector and academia.

Abstract

True empowerment requires an integrated approach encompassing access to resources information education, and economic independence.
AICCRA women empowerment’s programs reflect this philosophy by addressing multiple dimensions of women’s lives simultaneously: access to multi-channel advisories (voice, video, in-person) with local-language, low-literacy formats and off-peak delivery windows, leverage on self-help groups as formal extension nodes to farm demo plots; access to vocational trainings to expand knowledge.
This journey increased gender empowerment in target communities up to 15%.
