Expertise France is currently implementing a project funded by the European Union in Lebanon. The project is called “EU for Women Empowerment (EU4WE)” (referred as “the main project”) and its duration is 36 months (October 2019 - October 2022). EU4WE’s main objective is to promote equality between men and women in Lebanon. The project’s specific objectives are to reduce gender-based violence though women empowerment and to enhance institutional mechanisms working towards gender equality.
EU4WE works towards enhancing the economic empowerment of Lebanese women. In order to achieve this result, the project will provide technical support to MSMEs and startups women-led and/or women-owned businesses in Lebanon by providing them with the necessary technical and financial support (a grant programme for selected women-led and/or women-owned enterprises) to scale up their business.
Therefore, the objective of the market assessment study is to conduct an assessment of the gaps and needs of women entrepreneurs in order to instruct the design of the future technical assistance and the grant programme that the EU4WE project will deliver in order to support women-led/owned businesses in three regions of Lebanon.
