Through working with the Department of Water and Environmental Affairs and the Department of Energy, we are facilitating opportunities for women in rural, peri-urban and informal settlements to participate in green economy projects, such as solar energy, water purification, agriculture, construction, waste management and tourism. We are also facilitating financial support and training for women farmers and women's co-operatives with our national and international partners, including the United Nations Development Programme, the UN Women and the UN Population Fund, the UNFPA.
