This project aims to empower women entrepreneurs, including refugees and women with disabilities, in the green economy across 6 high-poverty governorates. To do so, it seeks to strengthen women-led micro, small and medium-sized enterprises in sectors like agriculture, energy, tourism, and transport by unlocking green finance, providing training, building business linkages, and promoting inclusive policies. To reduce gender-specific barriers, it also fosters safe workspaces, offers grants, childcare services, and runs awareness campaigns to challenge restrictive norms.
