The project’s objective is to increase women’s participation in the labor market in Egypt’s digital technology sector. Therefore, the project activities include intensive hands-on training in technology, digital marketing, and entrepreneurship to address critical skills gaps and expand employment opportunities for Egyptian women. It also includes preparing participants for employment by providing them with the essential tools and skills needed for effective job searching, personal branding, and successful entrepreneurship. Direct beneficiaries are women and girls participating in the project, including recent graduates and those who are not employed but are interested in these fields. Indirect beneficiaries are businesses and the broader Egyptian economy, which will benefit from improved employment and expanded job search opportunities beyond local markets.
Project social partners: Egyptian Informatics University, Vytautas Magnus University.
The project is funded by the Lithuanian Development Cooperation and Democracy Support Programme and implemented in partnership with the Lithuanian Embassy in the Arab Republic of Egypt.
