Agents Of Change

AOC – Agents of Change Program

An entrepreneurship initiative designed for women navigating trauma, isolation and financial instability.

The program empowered 68 women through structured business training sessions and hands-on workshops. Participants developed practical entrepreneurship skills from business registration, branding, and bookkeeping to product creation.

The program increased women’s confidence, financial literacy, and community engagement. Several participants expressed interest in launching micro-businesses or joining future advanced sessions.

Thanks to the funding partner for supporting this program.
