International Women’s Day 2010

International Women's Day is a global day celebrating the economic, political and social achievements of women, both past, present and future.

In many areas where FARM-Africa works, particularly Ethiopia, opportunities for women are extremely limited.  Women generally have fewer assets than men and limited opportunities to make money. They have difficulty gaining access to the credit they need to set up small businesses that generate income.

Farm Africa’s Rural Women’s Empowerment Project is working with women in Ethiopia, giving them the support they need to develop their position in society. With education, training and financial support, women in Ethiopia are building more prosperous, secure futures.

So, Farm Africa is celebrating International Women’s Day with the rest of the world.  We hope to help even more women to develop their position in society.
