Association of University Women
The Nigerian Association's income generating project for unemployed, unskilled
or partially educated women provides skills training in dressmaking and
beadwork. Once they have completed their training period, women are able
to produce finished garments as well as necklaces, bangles and beads.
The project has great impact on the communiities it targets, empowering
women who have had little or no formal education, enabling them to set
up small businesses for themselves. It is a self sustaining activitiy
- women are singled out from each group of trainees to become trainers
for the next group. The project will initially be carried out in
Abeokuta, with NAUW volunteers from Aleokuta and Lagos working as trainers.
