Skills Development and Training
We are breaking down barriers.
For every dollar a man earns, a woman earns 75 cents. If she’s a woman of colour, she will earn 60 cents.
With the support of our stakeholders and community, we’re breaking down barriers to achieve women’s economic equality. We are dedicated to helping limited income, marginalized groups and individuals overcome barriers to employment.
