One of the indicators of our success in capacity building is transformation of the project participants who are socio-economically disadvantaged girls, to the point that they join Chipua team in order to reach out to many more girls and help them build capacity. In 2019, there were 4 such girls who joined Chipua team. In March 2020, COVID-19 pandemic became the obstacle to go out and start any project. But, we did not waste time, rather continued with training of the project officers and assessing the best locations for project implementation. When the government announced people should live as normal, we were ready to embark our projects.
In June, the project officers along with the coordinator, chose three locations in three suburbs in Dar es Salaam. These locations are Gongolamboto, Kigamboni and Msasani. In each location about 50 girls registered their names, and soon training started.
Currently, there are 50-60 participants in all locations who are continuing with the training. Some of the participants with the assistant of the project officers have already started their own small businesses and are trying to stand on their own feet. It is very exciting time for them, like a child who takes the first step.
