The online course, developed by Right to Protection team and jointly with the Prometheus platform, will help find practical and safe opportunities to attract funding and resources to start or build your own business.
The topic of strengthening economic capacity through entrepreneurship is always relevant. It is about the self-sufficiency of citizens, which means independence, the ability to take responsibility, a proactive stance to achieve a decent standard of living and, as a result, the formation of certain habits in society.
Valeriia Sekisova, Head of Economic Resilience & Early Recovery programme
It is essential today, as millions of Ukrainians have lost everything due to the full-scale military aggression and are in urgent need of restoring at least basic financial stability. Unfortunately, many women are left alone and have to take care of their families. Entrepreneurship is one of the most effective ways to provide for yourself and your family. But the question often arises: How can I start if I have lost everything? I have no start-up capital. I do not have anyone to help me because I don't know anyone in the new place. I cannot risk the latter because if it does not work out, I will not have anything to feed my children.
Therefore, the need for support and guidance on finding practical and safe ways to attract funding and other resources to start a business in a new location or to support and strengthen an existing microbusiness is in demand.
The course aims to support those seeking help starting or strengthening their business, specifically, where to look for opportunities to attract resources for your business, what tools to use, and what steps to take to raise funding or other resources.
The course will give practical advice on how to raise resources, how they work, what opportunities are available in Ukraine today, and how to use them.
The course is unique in combining helpful information from expert practitioners, advice from specialists, and real-life stories.
We hope this course will be another step towards the recovery and strengthening of the self-reliance of the war-affected population. Economic activity contributes to effective integration in the new hromada after displacement and the restoration of social activity after trauma.
