Women’s Project Concludes Successful Semester

Tuesday July 2nd, 2024

In June, a total of 263 women successfully completed vocational training provided by our women’s project in the first half of the year. The skills obtained were exhibited during a public exhibition in El Alto, the final part of the exams required to obtain their certificates of achievement. Our team, as well as guests from the municipality of El Alto and cooperating NGOs, were particularly pleased to note the high percentage of women (46%) who had chosen to acquire skills considered “non-traditional” for women in Bolivia. These included construction trades, cell phone repair, driving licenses for public transport (minibuses) and other subjects from the wide range of vocational training offered by the projects.
