The International Organization for Migration in Port of Spain has partnered with Women-Owned Media and Education Network (W.O.M.E.N) for the execution of the Flourish: Empowering Resilience and Integration initiative. The programme takes a holistic approach to address challenges faced by nationals and none nationals in the community of Chaguanas; by providing training in sewing and climate smart farming, promoting integrated livelihoods and reducing xenophobia.
W.O.M.E.N’s mission is to create a platform for women that caters to multi-issues by employing a multi-strategy approach through knowledge and skill-based development, aid programs, counselling, and other services. We want to enable them to have active access to enterprises and employment for self-reliance and thus become more economically sustainable for personal fulfilment.
