Women & Girls Empowerment

DR Congo

This project will provide supportive services and vocational alternatives to 80 rights-deprived women in the toxic cobalt mines of Kolwezi, DR Congo. Our training will provide women with skills on various topics including on financial and savings-awareness raising concerning associated health risks, informing their human rights. To address the lack of protective equipment, we will distribute safety jackets, helmets, protective gloves, safety shoes for women who must work in the mining industry.
