UN Women Georgia has designed the ‘Practical Course on Entrepreneurship – How to Start a Business’ to improve economic opportunities and overall standing in the job marketplace for conflict-affected women living across the Administrative Boundary Lines (ABLs) in Georgia. This project is in perfect agreement with the 2022-2024 National Action Plan for the Implementation of UN Security Council Resolutions on Women, Peace, and Security, targeting women and their economic ascent in such regions.
The training is facilitated by the Office of the State Minister for Reconciliation and Civic Equality, with support from the Academy of the Ministry of Finance. The course itself, funded by the Danish Government, is within the scope of the ‘Women’s Increased Leadership for Resilient and Peaceful Societies’ project. The goal of the initiative is to nurture these essential entrepreneurial skills in women, thereby giving them opportunities to be economically independent and promote peace in their local communities.
