Economic Empowerment & Livelihoods

Empowering Women and Youth Through Vocational Training and Entrepreneurship in South Sudan

Addressing Economic Barriers for Sustainable Growth

In South Sudan, women and youth face significant challenges in achieving economic independence, including limited access to skills development, financial resources, and market opportunities. These barriers perpetuate cycles of poverty and hinder community resilience. At LAWANCI, we prioritize vocational training and entrepreneurship as pathways to economic empowerment, fostering self-reliance and sustainable livelihoods for women and marginalized groups.

Comprehensive Skills Development for Market Readiness

Our vocational training programs equip participants with market-aligned skills in sectors such as agriculture, handicrafts, and technology. Through partnerships with local institutions and industry experts, we deliver hands-on training in financial literacy, business management, and digital tools, ensuring graduates are prepared to navigate evolving economic landscapes.

Fostering Entrepreneurship and Innovation

LAWANCI supports aspiring entrepreneurs through mentorship, seed funding, and access to high-value supply chains. By linking women-led enterprises to local and regional markets, we enable the growth of small businesses that contribute to household incomes and community development.

Collaborative Partnerships for Scalable Impact

We collaborate with private-sector entities, government agencies, and civil society to amplify opportunities for women. These partnerships drive job creation, improve access to capital, and promote gender-responsive policies that ensure safe, inclusive workplaces and equitable resource distribution.

Building Resilience Through Policy Advocacy

LAWANCI advocates for gender-inclusive policies that address systemic barriers to women’s economic participation. By influencing legislation and supporting grassroots initiatives, we aim to expand social protections, enhance access to education, and secure legal rights for women in the workforce.
