National Council for Women Holds Product Exhibitions for Trainees in Five Governorates
As part of the National Project for the Development of the Egyptian Family, Egypt’s National Council for Women (NCW) has organized exhibitions showcasing products made by women trainees across five governorates: Minya, Assiut, Sohag, Qena and Giza. The exhibitions were held simultaneously under the “Wladna” (Our Children) Initiative, in cooperation with the Ministry of Health and Population.
The exhibitions featured a diverse collection of handicrafts produced by women who participated in the vocational training programmes conducted at the Council’s workshops. The initiative provides trainees with opportunities to market and promote their products while encouraging them to continue working and producing.
Mai Mahmoud, Director General of the Women’s Skills Development Center at the National Council for Women, emphasized that the Council’s efforts go beyond providing vocational training. They also focus on creating opportunities for trainees to apply the skills they have acquired and transform them into marketable products.
She added that the exhibitions offer women an important platform to showcase their work and engage directly with the public. This helps encourage them to continue producing, strengthens their confidence in their abilities, and opens new opportunities to market their products and generate income, thereby contributing to greater economic participation among women.
The exhibitions were attended by the rapporteurs of the Council’s branches in the five governorates, along with several branch members who showed their support for the trainees and encouraged their efforts.
