| dc.description.abstract | Dhamar Participatory Rural Development Project (DPRDP) runs a programme which covers agricultural and non-agricultural activities and aims at improving the livelihoods of poor rural women and men in Dhamar. It provides one of the few opportunities for rural women to receive technical and financial training. This article tells the story of one woman’s successful micro-enterprise, which increased her capital in three years from YR30000 ($150) to RY750000 ($3500). Three years ago she opened a small store for motorcycle spare parts, a very non-traditional role for a woman in Yemen. | en |
