WEE-RDP’s progress status in Jowzjan province

Women Economic Empowerment Rural Development Program (WEERDP) has established 1019 Self Help Groups (SHGs) in the Sheberghan city of Jowzjan province so far. These groups have saved 343,210 AFN in the last ten days which indicates the degree of trust people have placed in WEERDP and recognizing the prominence of savings in their communities. Furthermore, 810 out of 1019 SHGs are female groups and the remaining 209 are male groups.

It’s worthwhile to mention that most of these groups have received training on bookkeeping and saving methods as well as received saving boxes.
