Women’s Strategies for Facing the Economic Crisis: Research and Mapping the Action Plan

Women’s Strategies for Facing the Economic Crisis: Research and Mapping the Action Plan

March 2010-December 2010

Women’s Strategies for Facing the Economic Crisis: Research and Mapping the Action Plan,
funded by GIZ Local Subsidies Program (formerly GTZ).

The cooperation/network/linkage between civil society (Association of Business Women),
public sector (Ministry of Economy and Regional Development, National Agency for Regional
Development, National Employment Service, Ministry of Labor and Social Policy) and private sector
(women owned businesses) was strengthened through their representatives’ participation at the
roundtables and the awareness raised by the findings of the research regarding the sustainability of
women-owned businesses.
