The project ran for six years, from 2015 to 2021, and worked within agricultural value chains and markets where women are already active participants. It supported 25,000 women in Shan and Kayin states to become active and respected economic actors and leaders.
MEDA worked with local partners to improve the standard of living and the business environment for another 125,000 indirect clients. These clients benefitted from the improved household incomes of producers and enhanced goods and services provided by strengthened micro small and medium sized enterprises (MSMEs) in the agricultural sector.
