The Regional Enterprise Competitiveness and Access to Markets programme (RECAMP) is about boosting participation of the private sector in regional and global value chains. The programme does this through the improvement of the investment and business climate and enhanced competitiveness in the COMESA region.
The COMFWB Sudan chapter conducted its RECAMP workshop at the Friendship Hall in Khartoum. The workshop was attended by 30 business women owning small and medium industries. Furthermore, women from the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Social Development, as well as from the COMESA office in Sudan participated in the workshop.
The trainers adopted the participatory training method to discuss important challenges faced by women according to the topics that were raised through group work and individual participation. Most trainees own agribusinesses while some participants were cross border traders and others add value to leather products in their arts and crafts business.
This was a great opportunity to network with other women as well as realise trade opportunities that exists with other COMESA countries - Tagwa Ahmed, Participant

International Women's Day is a global holiday celebrated annually on March 8 to commemorate the cultural, political, and socioeconomic achievements of women. This year's theme was titled #BreakTheBias. Imagine a gender equal world. A world free of bias, stereotypes, and discrimination. A world that is diverse, equitable, and inclusive. A world where difference is valued and celebrated. Together we can forge women's equality. Collectively we can all #BreakTheBias.
