The model promotes local employment while improving access to healthy, affordable food and strengthening community nutrition. Nineteen women have enrolled in the three-month training programme. Alongside the ongoing training, efforts will focus on engaging more young girls and women from the community, creating a larger pool of skilled entrepreneurs and ensuring sustainable livelihood opportunities for the future.
