OUR PROJECTS
OngoingBorno State
WE-SING supports women’s livelihoods and psychosocial wellbeing in Borno State. Participants received start-up kits tailored to their chosen trades, helping them establish or expand small enterprises.
The project also provided individual counselling. Economic opportunities and tailored psychosocial support helped women rebuild confidence and strengthen their resilience.
2025 REPORT HIGHLIGHTS
Project-specific outputs reported in 2025. The kit and counselling figures describe separate services, not an additive unique-beneficiary total.
WHY THIS WORK MATTERS
Limited start-up capital and economic pressures can constrain women’s livelihood opportunities. WE-SING pairs tools for income generation with support for emotional wellbeing, building on participants’ own skills, interests and aspirations.
Provided livelihood kits for 100 women, covering activities such as tailoring, petty trading and food processing.
Provided specialised one-to-one counselling for 30 women in Borno State.
The report describes WE-SING psychosocial sessions where women found mutual encouragement and support.
BEYOND THE NUMBERS
The report describes women starting new businesses or expanding existing enterprises after receiving kits aligned with their chosen trades. Support was tailored to their skills, interests and livelihood aspirations.
