Published purpose

The project will bring down barriers faced by women traders in West Africa, and ensure that benefits from trade liberalization are inclusive, sustainable, and accrue to all. It will enable equitable access to trading opportunities by eliminating gender-based barriers that prevent women from benefiting from the full potential of trade as framed by the African Continental Free Trade Agreement (AfCFTA). Over a period of six years (2023-2024 to 2028-2029), the project expects to reach an estimated 80,000 direct beneficiaries, of which at least 70% are expected to be women and 20% youth.
