The project "Promoting the Economic and Social Empowerment of Vulnerable Women in Jordan, Lebanon and Egypt" aims to promote the social and economic empowerment of vulnerable Syrian refugee and Jordanian women. The aim of the project is to contribute to the creation of sustainable medium- to long-term employment opportunities and forms of income and association for Syrian and Jordanian refugee women who want to start their own businesses.

After the individualisation of some already established co-operatives, which need to be strengthened, specific seminars and training courses will be organised with the women beneficiaries of the project. The main activities of the project will focus mainly on training in business management and the acquisition of technical skills - courses in marketing, sales techniques, training in handicraft production and courses in customer relations techniques.

The ultimate goal of the initiative is to help improve the living conditions of vulnerable Jordanian women and Syrian refugee women in the Governorate of Ma'an through the creation of income-generating independent businesses.
