Key principles of FEM's projects
The women: beneficiaries and reliable interlocutors

In all the experiences of international cooperation with the LDCs, in all geographical areas, women have demonstrated of being the most reliable interlocutors to achieve the objectives of the intervention. The improvements in the social-economic conditions of women are systematically transferred to the whole family, contrarily to what happens when the beneficiaries are men. Moreover, the improvement in the economic role of women facilitates the processes of emancipation and recovery of dignity, especially within cultural contexts entailing their social exclusion.
 
Valorization of the local entrepreneurial ideas
The resources are exclusively granted with the aim of starting up or strengthening economic activities that in the medium period can become sustainable and independent from the contribution of FEM or other philanthropic agencies and can generate a stable income for the beneficiaries.
 
Specialization by geographic area and economic sector
We believe that in order to operate in an efficient way in the LDCs it is necessary to develop strong competences and to known in depth the social and cultural contexts of the country of intervention. That is why FEM's activities are focused on some specific geographic areas and on a limited numbers of economic sectors.
