November marked the end of the piloting of the W-Rise course, a journey of learning, courage and growth shared by Ukrainian refugee women who have chosen entrepreneurship as a tool to rebuild their future

Each session was full of ideas, questions, challenges overcome and, above all, a collective strength that reminds us why projects like W-Rise are so necessary.

This course has not only been a space for training 🎓, but also for building trust 🤝, mutual support 💞 and networking among women who share the desire to build a better future through knowledge and entrepreneurship.

At W-Rise, we would like to congratulate all the participants for their efforts and thank them deeply for their involvement!🎊👏

With W-Rise, we continue to move forward together towards more opportunities, autonomy and empowerment 💙💛
