Following on from the success of our Economic Empowerment for Education (3E) Project over the past couple of years, we have managed to fund a further 75 women IDPs who had fled from the rural villages of the NW Region to Bamenda.  These women had lost everything in the war and had come to Bamenda looking for a safe place to live and work.  They were destitute and were not able to feed their families or send their children to school.  However, following the SHUMAS training in small business management, they received start up materials and are now running successful small businesses.  Each of the families are now eating regularly and the children are attending school again.

In this film, some of the women describe how the 3E project has changed their lives for the better.
