All the partners of this initiative, ICIEG, FAO and UN-Women, have drawn women's attention to equal access to land, equitable income sharing and the deconstruction of prejudices and stereotypes around masculinity. and femininity in favor of a fairer and more egalitarian society, essential to human development and to rural communities. They also pointed out that the economic activities of women in rural areas have a significant impact on household income and have real potential for promoting empowerment and promoting entrepreneurship. On the other hand, the participants, beneficiaries of different projects implemented in the country, were able to share their experiences and good practices from the beginning in order to motivate the other women present at the meeting. The ICIEG noted that its partners, including POSER, are strategically seeking to invest in building capacity for entrepreneurship and innovation in rural women's income-generating activities for many families.
