HUMAN ACCESS’ Community Center for IDPs in Marib Governorate launched a training program for 25 women who own home businesses in the field of producing baked goods and pastries.
This training intends to improve women's skills in making health products using local raw materials, such as red wheat, millet, and barley, and to improve nutrition through developing productive activities that contribute to improving income and enhancing sustainability.
The program is implemented in partnership with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and MotherFood, a Canadian organization interested in improving food quality.
A particular focus of the training program is to provide pregnant women and children with healthy products that are both nutritious and reasonably priced, in an effort to combat malnutrition in Yemen.
The program includes teaching participants life and management skills that will help them develop and expand their own businesses and provide new health products.
At the end of the program, the trainees will receive tools and equipment to help them produce health products and diversify their product lines, as well as ongoing support and consultation to ensure the sustainability of their economic projects.
