Women Win: Play It Forward (PIF)
Comic Relief awarded a grant of GBP 149,150 to Women Win for work in Zambia, dated 28 March 2018.
Overview
Playing It Forward seeks to transform the lives of adolescent girls (AG) and young women (YW) in Zambia, through sport and lifeskills training. Its three year plan is to provide economic empowerment to a group of 150 young women and girls who have completed previous training, as well as bringing in a further 1200 girls as new joiners for the Goal programme. To begin, a local market analysis of openings for girls in the labour market and businesses will inform and lead to group teaching, individual mentoring and support in finding work and internships in sports or other sectors. Some girls will also be helped to set up their own small businesses with start-up grants and seed funding.
