HUMAN ACCESS in Hadhramaut and Marib carried out a number of activities funded by the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) to support efforts for women's empowerment and development.

These activities were part of the protection and livelihood support project "Safe space for women and girls".

A financial marketing training program was organized by the safe space for 13 participants of the sewing and tailoring course in Seiyun city, Wadi Hadhramaut, in order to prepare the beneficiaries for entering the labor market and establishing their own businesses.

Due to the high prevalence of dengue fever disease in the governorate and the need to increase awareness, the safe space in Al-Matar area in Marib conducted a health education session on dengue fever, its symptoms and prevention. The session targeted a number of visitors to the space.

The space at Al-Matar also implemented group psychological support for the trainees in the field of sewing to motivate them to make the most of this opportunity given to them.

The space continues vocational training in the fields of sewing and hairdressing in order to provide the trainees with income-generating professions and protect them from poverty.

Additionally, in Al-Mujamma area, the space completed a life, marketing and financial skills course for the beneficiaries of the sewing and sweets/pastry-making courses. Its program for the second quarter of this year includes rehabilitating 43 beneficiaries in various craft fields, particularly the poorest women and girls.
