From Dreams to Realities: Women Business Hub is creating Pathways for Women and Youth Survivalist Entrepreneurs to live their dreams.

Majority of Women and Youth in Western Kenya are faced with socio-economic challenges similar to those being experienced by other communities in the rest of Kenya. Some of these challenges include increased household poverty and high unemployment rates. Unemployment has become an issue that also affects graduates who are equipped with the education and knowledge that was considered appropriate for formal labour markets in the past. This is made evident by the increasing statistics of the relatively well educated individuals practicing Survivalist Entrepreneurship in the absence of formal employment in Kenya as a whole.

Women Business Hub has designed tailor made capacity building and mentorships on How to Start and Growing my Business for Self Reliance.

Why it is important to strengthen the Systems of community based organizations

Community organizations and networks are uniquely positioned to interact with affected communities, respond quickly to community needs and issues, and engage with affected and vulnerable groups. They offer direct services to communities while also advocating for better programming and policy environments. This allows them to influence the development, reach, implementation, and oversight of public systems and policies, as well as the contribution of a community to health.
