An exhibition to present products by female breadwinners will open next week at Tehran’s Goftegoo Park, said Fahimeh Firouzgar, director of the Office for Empowerment of Women Breadwinners at Tehran Municipality. “The goods on offer are all produced by women from the municipality’s Kowsar rehabilitative centers,” she was quoted as saying by ISNA. Kowsar centers are dedicated to supporting female-headed households and provide counseling services as well as vocational training to female breadwinners to help enable them to join the national production cycle. The exhibitions help introduce the work of such women and create a platform to connect them with investors and employers.
