Goal:
Providing services and pressing for change, to support women worldwide to start, sustain and grow successful enterprises so they can reach their full potential
Project Overview:
The Cherie Blair Foundation for Women works together with partners, providing services and pressing for change, to support women worldwide to start, sustain and grow successful enterprises so they can reach their full potential. The Cherie Blair Foundation for Women exists to create a future where women everywhere have the economic equality to thrive. Together with partners around the world, they work with women in low and middle-income countries so they can start, sustain and grow successful enterprises, and they collaborate to create fairer business environments so women can reach their potential on their terms. Since 2008, Cherie Blair Foundation for Women training and mentoring services have supported more than 230,000 women to build successful micro, small and medium enterprises in over 100 countries. They blend research, partnerships and technology to open doors for women entrepreneurs to skills, confidence, networks, finance and markets. And they press for change to stop millions of women being held back. Over the course of our partnership with the Cherie Blair Foundation for Women, 33 women nominated from WOUGNET have completed the Mentoring Women in Business programme. As a result, women achieve their own economic objectives. They create a better future for themselves, their families, and their communities. And they contribute to a thriving fair economy and global economic justice.
