Founded in 2015, the Women’s Workshop provides the widows of fallen Rangers with practical skills and sustainable employment, empowering them to become resilient breadwinners and caretakers. Beyond financial stability, these workshops nurture a sense of independence and confidence. By crafting and selling products, the widows not only support their families but also connect with broader markets and communities, seamlessly integrating into the economic and social fabric of their surroundings.

Workshops of Empowerment

The workshops, located in Mustsora, Rumangabo, and Goma, are central to this mission. Although the Mustsora workshop remains temporarily closed due to security concerns, it is slated for reopening in 2025, promising new opportunities for the widows. The Rumangabo workshop has seen continuous activity despite challenges, with 12 widows dedicating their skills to creating marketable products like computer covers and plush toys for the international market.
