Trainings on women's empowerment in the DRC

Despite the obstacles women entrepreneurs face in their businesses, they play an important role in the Congolese economy. They increasingly create employment opportunities for other women as well as men, while supporting their own families and communities.

The promotion of women in the world of work as well as the fight against gender-based discrimination are on the agenda of most public and private structures that organize training on female empowerment in order to equip women with new knowledge.
