Empowering Women From Ethnic Minorities Through Social Enterprise
2018-1-IE01-KA204-038781
Erasmus+ project “Empowering Women from Ethnic Minorities through Social Enterprise” in Ireland, Italy, Greece, United Kingdom, Türkiye, Germany and Lithuania.
The EMwoSE project (“Empowering Women from Ethnic Minorities through Social Enterprise”), supported by Erasmus+, addresses the underrepresentation of women—especially from ethnic minorities—in the labor market and entrepreneurship. Although women make up half of the global population, they are significantly underrepresented in business activities.
EMwoSE will produce four major outputs, including a storytelling library and training modules, based on research conducted across the participating countries to identify barriers and needs. The ultimate goal is to increase employment and engagement of ethnic minority women in the social enterprise sector.

We realised we really wanted to catch a glimpse of what went on behind the scenes of the companies we looked up to. And we thought other people would want to know too.
So we decided to organise an event to share these stories. Today, we run monthly Show & Tell events and an annual conference.
