During the months of June and July, participants in our project<\/a><\/strong> that seeks to promote access to decent work, especially in the tourism sector, for people in vulnerable situations in Upper Egypt, funded by Spanish Agency for International Development Cooperation (AECID)<\/strong>, and implemented in consortium with our partner Association of Upper Egypt for Education and Development (AUEED)<\/strong>, have received business training.<\/p>\n

Through 4 sessions, each lasting 5 days, a total of 92 people have been able to address issues such as the basic components of entrepreneurship, based on the “canvas business model”; business planning; financial management and marketing. For what concerns this activity the target of participants was overachieved.<\/p>\n

The first of these training sessions, in which 16 participants took part, was held from 6 to 10 June in Sohag City. Subsequent training sessions were held from 13 to 17 June in Luxor with 20 participants.<\/p>\n

In July, training sessions were held in Luxor from 4 to 8 of July with 44 participants and in Assiut from 10 to 14 with 12 participants.<\/p>\n

During the sessions held in Assiut on 13 July, Raquel Ferrando Sellers, representative of AECID, was accompanied by Ramy Yousef, fundraising officer at AUEED.<\/p>\n

During the day, she had the opportunity to talk with the participants in the training and also to visit the bazaar with the products of some of them.<\/p>\n

By the end of the 4 trainings the project is really close to hit another important target as 52 participants requested loans. The project has a target of 60 participants in total. 27 loans have been already disbursed to beneficiaries as of today.<\/p>\n
