Mumosho

Women participate in empowerment and entrepreneurial courses in the rural village Mumosho. Many suffered domestic violence. They have now opened their own business and are able to generate income from manual and farming activities. The courses are offered by the Women For Women International that also holds sessions for men from the community to teach them about respect and non-violence against women.
