Summary
In Chad, rural women face significant barriers to economic empowerment: limited access to financing, a lack of training, weak group structures and few opportunities to develop income-generating activities. In collaboration with Global Affairs Canada and several local partners, the ELLES+ project empowers women and strengthens their entrepreneurial capacity, particularly through supporting women’s associations.
