Capacity Building

RWOTA builds the Capacities of members through
a) Training-This is provided to members who have governance and management
challenges in business. For the training to be effective, needs assessment
studies are performed to ensure that the needs of members are understood and
considered before training intervention is designed. RWOTA has a number of
training programmes throughout the year and collaborates with other women’s
organizations and trade facilitation agencies to build the capacity of women
entrepreneurs and prepare them for cross border and international trade.
b) Mentoring-Mentoring is provided to members who wish to start business or
those in business but facing challenges of sustainability. This is geared towards
motivating and guiding women entrepreneurs to persist in business in growing
their businesses. Additionally, it builds confidence among women and girls as
they plan to undertake businesses or implement their business plans.
c) Business counseling-Some of RWOTA members come seeking one off
guidance on how to start, sustain or grow business. They have good ideas but
they are not the most appropriate for their situation. Through day today
counseling sessions women in business are guided and supported on how to
address the challenges they face
