Mujeres Semilla is a comprehensive training program for women in Indigenous and rural communities. It is designed to strengthen skills, economic autonomy, and opportunities for personal and professional development.
Through training pathways tailored to the needs and opportunities of each community, the program combines socioemotional development and empowerment, employment training, and financial education. Participants receive support throughout the process, strengthening both their personal capabilities and the practical tools they need to generate their own income.
The program seeks to reduce barriers that have historically limited women’s access to educational and economic opportunities by bringing training directly to their communities and building support networks that encourage continued participation and long-term development.
Mujeres Semilla began in the Sierra de Zongolica, Veracruz, with the goal of gradually adapting and expanding the model to additional communities and municipalities.
