TARGETING THE MARGINALIZED
WOMEN'S ECONOMIC EMPOWERMENT
During International Women's Day (IWD) on March 8, 2021, using a combination of platformsāsocial media, radio talk shows, entrepreneurial awareness, business training, integrated leadership, and peacebuilding training sessionsāwe acquainted women with business opportunities triggered by COVID-19, built their skill to maximize the opportunities and discuss challenges encountered by women in an attempt to actualize their full talent. In addition, our gender equity and social inclusion (GESI) media campaign reached 113,351 people with messaging around opportunities for women and PWDs.
Through our supported agro-allied service providers, we reached and taught 24,456 women farmers and enterprises from the aquaculture, cassava, cocoa, palm oil, and poultry value chains with the best farming and business practices in the reporting year. Of these, 16,992 women farmers and MSMEs improved their KAP (knowledge, attitudes, and practices), and subsequently, their productivity.
