CCIMCAT`s educational programs constitute a strategy to directly involve women in unions, community structures and social organizations. An emphasis on practical training teaches our students to act efficiently within their institutions, to mobilize other women and to be aware of the social, economic and political reality in which they live.

Productivity

The development of productivity responds to the low standard of living of rural families. At the same time, these projects are designed to instill women with self-confidence, economic autonomy, and leadership skills in the production sphere. We accomplish these goals in two areas: textile manufacturing and cooperative vegetable cultivation.

Research is a fundamental component of our mission; in order to devise effective projects and realize sustainable changes, it is essential to understand the socio-economic context and needs of rural women and their families.
