UN Women Pakistan under its new Vision 2022-2026 is diversifying its Women’s Economic Empowerment (WEE) portfolio and supporting women home based workers. Its long-term investment with WHBWs continues with efforts focused on graduating WHBWs to become owners of their own small businesses. Recommendations from the end-term project evaluation of the UN Women’s WHBWs project states that there is ample evidence of the significant results achieved in working with WHBWs. Evidence suggests that many of the issues faced by Pakistani Women wanting to work, such as lack of mobility and access to finance can be addressed through technology-based solutions. Access to opportunities and learning financial literacy can be a strong force to increase Women Economic Empowerment for the intended rural women in the project target sites.
The project in focus is supporting 1800 rural women farmers of KP-MDs at Khyber, Momand and Bajaur and engaging them in on & off farm income generating activities as their means of livelihoods. The project has already identified and grouped them into farm commodity clusters for bulk production and aggregation to benefit from economy of scale at times of sales in the market. Similar initiatives may also be endeavored in off farm entrepreneurial activities by the rural women to work both as individuals & marketing collectives to help build and continue productively with means of livelihoods, resources including cash and assets and skills they must empower through inclusion and capacity to be at par with males socially and economically.
UNWOMEN requires services of a consultant to support enhancing the skills of rural women and women farmers in district Khyber, Mohmand and Bajour around financial literacy, savings, financial concerns, microfinance products, investment planning and collective market actions. The consultant will be doing initial assessment to determine the base line for informed planning and execution of the work assigned.
