HUMAN ACCESS, in Seiyun, Hadhramaut Governorate, distributed economic empowerment grants to 28 beneficiary women. These women were trainees of tailoring, sewing, and confectionary-making training programmes conducted in the 2022 first and second quarters.

Under the Protection and Livelihood Support Project (the Safe Space for Women and Girls), funded by United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), those grants included sewing machines, embroidery materials, various textiles, and supplies for making sweets and pastries.

Such trainings and projects empower women and grant them the chance to compete in the labor market, enabling them to open their own projects and therefore enhance their living standard. The efforts made by HUMAN ACCESS and the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) in supporting women and girls, mainly in areas of economic empowerment, training, and capacity-building, were commended.
