• Municipalities unions of municipalities have increased skills, knowledge, and means to be more actively involved in local economic development and are implementing interventions to support women economic empowerment.
• Public support increased and an enabling environment enhanced for women’s economic empowerment at household, community, business, and municipal levels.
