comments:

It should be noted that inclusion of refugee women in labour market participation related activities is a big challenge. Since the refugee women have been reluctant to work due to cultural barriers as well as their domestic responsibilities which could not be dealt through other mechanisms because of financial constraints. However, The next phase of this project (TUR/19/02/USA, Project No: 107303) was designed by developing women-specific interventions. For instance, facilitating establishment of refugee and Turkish women run together cooperatives and provide support for existing ones to ensure their sustainability. To conclude, we had designed the next phase of this project (TUR/19/02/USA, Project No: 107303) by considering the male-female target proportion as 30% female and 70% male. The percentage could not be set as 50% due to be more realistic in terms of implementation of activities and outreach potential.
