Our Impact

Over the past three years, SWAGWOR has supported women rebuilding their lives in fragile and conflict-affected contexts by equipping them with practical business skills, start-up support, and ongoing mentorship. Through our entrepreneurship, agriculture, and leadership initiatives, women have launched micro-enterprises, strengthened their household incomes, and increased their participation in community decision-making. Beyond income generation, our programmes restore dignity, confidence, and agency , enabling women not only to survive, but to lead and contribute meaningfully to their communities. We measure our impact not only by the number of businesses started, but by the long-term resilience and economic independence women achieve.

Akuol

Before joining the Skills Lab, I was constantly wondering where to find work to support myself and my family, especially since I have no formal education. The hands-on training and startup support helped me start a liquid soap business within my community. Today, I earn my own income, provide for my family, and have hope for the future.
