Limited access to financial services, productive resources, business knowledge, markets and opportunities to participate in decision-making can make it difficult for them to build stable livelihoods.<\/p><p>These challenges can contribute to household vulnerability, dependence on informal and unstable sources of income, and limited opportunities for women and young people to shape their own economic future.<\/p><p>Development Corners supports women and youth to strengthen their capacity to participate in the local economy and develop more sustainable sources of income.<\/p><p>Our approach combines financial literacy, entrepreneurship development, leadership and business skills with practical support for savings, group organisation, business planning and livelihood development. We encourage participants to identify opportunities within their local context and to build enterprises and income-generating activities that can grow over time.<\/p><p>Where appropriate, the programme also connects participants with relevant institutions, services, technical support and market opportunities.<\/p><h3>What we aim to achieve<\/h3><p>We aim to increase the ability of women and young people to make informed financial decisions, develop viable livelihood activities, access economic opportunities and participate more confidently in household, community and economic decision-making.<\/p><p>Ultimately, the programme seeks to contribute to greater economic independence, stronger household resilience and more inclusive local economies.<\/p>
