Specific objectives
We supported educators of adult non-formal education institutions in learning and training activities, in the acquisition and use of entrepreneurial knowledge, skills and qualifications to facilitate disadvantaged woman in personal development and employability.
Through exchanging the practices among partner organizations we developed a two step activity which included designing learning strategy, creating and piloting the training program Making Ideas Happen to promote greater employability of disadvantaged woman.

180 disadvantaged women (unemployed, living in rural areas, single mothers, disabled, migrants, widows, etc.)
Concrete activities

The synthesis of ICT and project-based learning promotes a pragmatic approach for strengthening entrepreneurial skills such as creativity, initiative, tenacity, teamwork, problem solving as well as take advantage of information, communication and technology (ICT) opportunities.
