The GROW Project helps women start and expand businesses across Uganda. The program focuses on groups that face the most challenges. These groups are refugees, women with disabilities, and indigenous communities. The Ministry of Gender works with the Private Sector Foundation to run the program. World Bank money funds the project.
Women can access loans, training, and business support through GROW. The program helps with product development and export opportunities. Indigenous groups like Batwa, Tepeth, Ik, and Benet receive extra help. Refugee women and disabled women also get special treatment. Women from Busoga, Bukedi, and Karamoja regions qualify for additional support.
Rural women and those from refugee areas can apply for infrastructure grants. These grants improve access to markets and services. The program trains refugee women entrepreneurs to grow their businesses. Gender Minister Betty Amongi wants to turn GROW into a women's bank. The government bought motorcycles for project workers across 149 districts and cities.
