• Some value chains needed to split while keeping good relationships
• Some value chains needed to redesign their group enterprise due to crisis
CHALLENGES
![Page 14: RI Empowering Women IDPs And Host Community Members Through Value Chain Development](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081520/58a837121a28ab30658b474d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
• In some value chains men (husbands) were dominating and wanted to take over the project
• In some value chains women recruited a person to sell in the shop (cultural challenge)
CHALLENGES
![Page 15: RI Empowering Women IDPs And Host Community Members Through Value Chain Development](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081520/58a837121a28ab30658b474d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• Lost enterprise; added vocational skills activities for members to move forward; connecting them with the market
• Corrective action to reform project
• Preventive actions including technical training before start-up
• Involving community natural leaders in mediating potential conflict among group members
MEETING CHALLENGES
![Page 16: RI Empowering Women IDPs And Host Community Members Through Value Chain Development](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081520/58a837121a28ab30658b474d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• Encouraged women to meet regularly in the shop to discuss topics of mutual interest in addition to the project
• Encouraged women to produce home made products to sell in their own shops to get weekly income instead of waiting
MEETING CHALLENGES (2)
![Page 17: RI Empowering Women IDPs And Host Community Members Through Value Chain Development](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081520/58a837121a28ab30658b474d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
• To increase women mobility we needed to connect them with MoDM to have an IDP card, and permission at the check point
• Sending some money to their families & older children at university back home (Tikrit, Salah El Din) since not have all needs met
SECONDARY IMPACT
