The goal of this project is to increase women’s economic empowerment, improve their lives and their communities, by providing them with access to information and networking opportunities through a Knowledge Gateway. The Knowledge Gateway is an on-line ‘one-stop service’ giving women access to the latest and most-up-to-date information, technical resources, and best practices, on business and economic opportunities, among other things. The Gateway provides a mechanism for ongoing learning and exchange among users, including women entrepreneurs, practitioners and policy-makers on issues that are critical to advancing women’s economic empowerment.
