Abstract:

This project focuses on women living in rural, remote, isolated, or marginalized areas who have restricted access to work and who engage in the production of handicrafts or other forms of “homemade” productions or services related to culture, community, or environment they live in. It aims to help women acquire entrepreneurial, digital, communication and leadership skills for them to learn how to promote, distribute, and sell the products through upgrading the “home-based business model” into start-ups or social enterprises. The kick-off meeting of the ACT4WOMEN project took place virtually on May 18, 2021. All the participating organizations took part in a fruitful discussion related to the project’s main objectives and the next steps of implementation. Other aspects of the project such as the Quality Assurance and the Dissemination Plan were also discussed and agreed upon. The outcomes can be seen in https://act4women.eu/output-a/. Currently, courses are available in several languages.
