Traditional gender roles are strong: men traditionally hold authority and decision-making power and women are responsible for food, raising children and household chores. At the same time, women-owned businesses are increasing in almost all regions of Somalia and women are a growing force in the local economy in terms of numbers, potential employment opportunities and diversification of economic activity. However, and largely due to patriarchal structures, many of the women-led businesses are small-scale and/or informal, they suffer from pressure to adhere to traditional gender roles and lack social and institutional support. While access to finance is a challenge for all businesses in Somalia, the problem is particularly acute for women-owned businesses."}, {"bbox": [95, 1461, 1133, 1541], "category": "Text", "text": "In line with the EU's Gender Action Plan III and complementing Priority Areas 2 (Inclusive and green economic growth) and 3 (Resilience building and social inclusion) of the EU's Multiannual Indicative Programme (MIP) for Somalia 2021 - 2027, this G2¹ Action will focus on supporting women's economic and social empowerment in"}, {"bbox": [84, 1571, 1141, 1646], "category": "Footnote", "text": "¹ In line with the OECD-DAC Gender Equality Policy Marker, this action is marked as G-2, i.e. gender equality is the main objective of the programme and is fundamental in its design and results, The programme would not have been undertaken without this gender equality objective."}]
