Unido's Women Entrepreneurship Development Programme (WEDP) concluded a two week long home textile training workshop, organised to develop the creativity of women entrepreneurs for design business. The workshop which was conducted in partnership with the First Women Bank Limited's Women Business Development and Training Centre here aimed at teaching the women entrepreneurs' creative designing in the home textile sector so that innovative product range and value addition in existing products could be ensured.
Unido through its WEDP is facilitating synergies between government/institutions level and public and private sector support services, to further initiate and to provide gender-sensitised support.
The Unido Head of Agency, Shadia Yousuf Bakhait remarked, "Women in Pakistan lack proper business and design training due to many reasons. Only a few women graduate each year from Business institutes that teach textiles, while others run their businesses entirely on short courses and general inspiration.-PR
