Knowledge sharing: The ILO Somalia and Kenyan teams, Government of Kenya and social partners participated in a two day retreat in Naivasha for an impact evaluation on women entrepreneurs.

The workshop aimed to further the role of entrepreneurship training and business development services play in business creation and consolidation while simultaneously bridging the knowledge gap that exists on the effects they have specifically on women and their economic empowerment.

By better understanding the relationship between private sector development work and women’s economic empowerment, government and social partners will be able to better design and implement projects and programmes that tap into, and trigger, the potential of women as creators of economic growth, innovation and jobs.
