Feminist in Action
July 2022

Feminist in Action (FIA) is a Livelihood project funded by Care International, tackling the limited access of disadvantaged families, mostly women-lead, to tailored financial and technical support. The project was able to provide 45 women from vulnerable communities with opportunities that enhanced their technical skills and put them on a path to becoming economically empowered and self-reliant. This is achieved by offering vocational training in 3 men-dominated work fields related to minor shelter repairs (electrical repairs, carpentry, paint) followed by entrepreneurship skills training. Participants also followed awareness sessions about gender-based violence (GBV) and protection measures.
