Tajikistan: First PI Training in Central Asia

Client: International Management Group (IMG)

Donor: Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA)

Duration: 02/2023 to 05/2023

Description of the Project:

In a pilot project together with IMG Partners (Japan), we have trained four trainers from different regions in Tajikistan to deliver a shortened version of the PI Training to female small-scale business owners. The Train-the-Trainer workshop was delivered in Duschanbe, Tajikistan in February 2023 and a subsequent pilot training was conducted in three provinces of Tajikistan to small groups of female entrepreneurs. Working together with a Tajik Incubator (State Business Incubator) that was established in a project funded by the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA), the team of trainers then delivered the training to an initial cohort of 60 female entrepreneurs.
