Project Description
Women from Cochabama face challenges related to gender equality in their communities. Instituto de Formación Femenina Integral (IFFI) provides technical assistance to the organization Plataforma de Mujeres por la Ciudadanía y la Equidad (PMCE) to develop its members’ skills in leadership, organization and civic engagement. At the IAF, we support community-led solutions to strengthen governance in Bolivia. IFFI’s activities strengthen excluded communities so they can improve their living conditions and participate equally in a nation’s political, economic and social life.
