- To create an enterprise module (trainer’s manual and participant handbook) that integrates micro and small enterprise concepts to the Gender Action Learning System (GALS) methodology for individual and family livelihood investment planning.
- To conduct a 4-day ‘train the trainer’ workshop with selected IRP staff.
