Behind every certificate lies a story of perseverance. Behind every start-up kit lies a new opportunity.

In Mindif, 150 women entrepreneurs have completed their training in dairy processing and are now equipped to transform newly acquired skills into sustainable income-generating activities.

Investing in women means investing in stronger households, stronger communities and a stronger local economy. 🇨🇲

The #IsDB delegation also visited GBHS Bamenda, where the #PPRD-NW/SW has rehabilitated and equipped the school with funding from the Bank, providing a new and more conducive learning environment after years of dilapidation.

The school resumed this academic year in its improved facilities, with enrolment now exceeding 700 students.

During the visit, the delegation interacted with school authorities, teachers and students, hearing first-hand how the improved facilities have changed the school environment and what they mean for the school community.

Une reconnaissance méritée qui ouvre la voie à de nouvelles opportunités économiques pour les femmes rurales. 🇨🇲
