This project is implemented by Engineers Without Borders Nepal (EWBN) with support from ADBL, targeting small-scale entrepreneurs and housewives to help them understand personal and household finance, along with being aware about financial opportunities and traps. The objective is to make women financially independent, and capable of making decisions regarding expenses, savings, and investments; while also helping them avoid financial scams or unsafe investments.
Financial literacy in Nepal stands at 57.9%. Women consistently score lower, with only one-third meeting minimum knowledge levels.
Empower women with financial literacy. So they can make better financial decisions and attain financial independence, while also shedding light on high-risk informal practices.
