• Building women’s and girls’ leadership skills including communication, negotiation, planning, influencing and conflict resolution skills,
• Enhancing women and girls financial skills through financial literacy and management
• Providing women and girls with new abilities to initiate positive change within their households and communities, and advocate for their rights.
Sting was also responsible for training of trainers in two targeted urban communities in Cairo and Alexandria, in order to enable social workers, gate keeper, and community leaders to master the Leadership for Change methodology and techniques.
