One thing that stuck with me from my visit to the East is the enthusiasm, vibrancy & commitment of #women entrepreneurs. But they continue to face systemic challenges - getting required certification, access to reliable finance to scale up & stigma. Hat off to their perseverance!

Thanks for a very comprehensive presentation on the socio-economic status of the #Batticaloa district and challenges, including school drop out and water/floods. Batti has a high percentage of women-headed households & the recent economic hardships have affected them hard.
