Description
In this project the project promoter would like to give opportunity to women who take part in the undermotivating Public Works Programme or Employment Subsidy Progr. that gives no solution for them: to make ends meet, to develop their children, to decrease their vulnerability and to generate an income. The target group is 20 women who are above 50, bringing up their children alone and exposed to family violence. Within the project the opportunity of self-sufficiency (the production, preservation and sale of surplus food) will be given to the participants in order to reduce financial dependence. By the help of this training the project promoter will pass on the proper knowledge to help them improve the quality of their life. The courses are to help them improve their ability to enforce their interests. With the help of the available services their daily problems will be relieved.

With the help of the project they managed to do better in self-management, they are able to enforce their interests much better than before, and they can experience the force of a community. With the help of the courses they gained the knowledge how to improve the quality of their life. They learned to grow without chemicals, to dry, preserve, sew and sell products.
