Training was offered for the following participating countries: El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala, in Central America, and Antigua and Barbuda, Dominica, Grenada, St. Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia and St. Vincent and the Grenadines, in the Caribbean. In Central America the Program is being implemented in partnership with the Regional Center for the Promotion of MSMEs (CENPROMYPE, for its acronym in Spanish).

Entrepreneur Naomi Bannis-Sampson, Managing Director of Bannis Farms Products in Dominica, stated that she was determined to understand how to use Meta tools including reels on Instagram and Facebook which are necessary for growing her business and improving her online presence.
Programs such as this demonstrate the OAS/SEDI’s continued commitment to building women’s capacity and expanding opportunities for their participation in the socio-economic development of their countries. The Women’s Economic Empowerment Project is being implemented by the OAS-SEDI in collaboration with CENPROMPYE, local partners, including government agencies, business associations, NGO’s and with funding support from the US Department of State Permanent Mission to the Organization of American States and Meta.
