Delegate addressing during the AfDB's Annual Meeting 2014 - New Business Models for Private Sector Resource Mobilization on May 20, 2014, in Kigali, Rwanda.
A new women resource center was opened in Bilasuvar as part of the of the joint project funded by the European Union and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), and implemented by the State Committee for Family, Women and Children Affairs of the Republic of Azerbaijan, UNDP and Women’s Association for Rational Development.
Opening Bilasuvar Women Resource Centre is the first result under this project. The aims of this centre are to help women strengthen their presence in community life. It will serve as a public platform to plan and coordinate women’s economic and social initiatives, and provide different opportunities for capacity building, entrepreneurial activity, vocational education, and creative self-expression.
Welcoming officials and participants in Bilasuvar city, the head of Executive Authority, Mr. Mahir Guliyev stressed the importance of the women resource centre in supporting women in both Bilasuvar and surrounding villages.
To this date, the Women Resource Centres have mobilized 416 women members, facilitated training for over 350 women, helped starting or improving more than 50 women-led businesses, and reached over 450 children, women and men in awareness-raising campaign on violence and gender issues.
For the past decade, the Government of Azerbaijan has collaborated with all interested stakeholders to bring the concerns and issues of women to the forefront of different areas of economic and social policies. Ms. Hijran Huseynova, a Chairperson of the State Committee expressed her willingness to continue and strengthen this partnership, and open such support centres throughout the country.
The opening ceremony of Bilasuvar Women Resource Centres took place during the 16 Days of Activism Campaign against Gender-based Violence, which is held in the country between 25 November and 10 December together with many partners including the EU Delegation, UNDP, and State Committee for Family, Women and Children Affairs. This Campaign advocates for the action to end violence against women and girls everywhere. UNDP Resident Representative, Mr. Ghulam M. Isaczai expressed his hope during his speech that such centres in Bilasuvar and other regions would be the grassroots-level champions raising awareness about the negative impacts of gender-based violence beyond the time limits of international campaigns.
“Today’s event celebrates only one of the first results of our joint project, but this collaboration will also help Azerbaijan to contribute to a number of Sustainable Development Goals, particularly the SDG 5 on achieving gender equality and empowering all women and girls, SDG 8 on ensuring inclusive economic growth, full and productive employment and decent work for all, and SDG 10 on reducing inequality within and among countries.” – Mr. Isaczai mentioned.
"The Centre will help to promote the important role of women as active members of the society and increase many possibilities of good support structures for female participation in various fields" – Ms. Malena Mard, EU Ambassador highlighted in her speech during the opening ceremony.
After the opening ceremony, thirteen local women were awarded with certificates to launch their businesses under the project. Ms. Mansura Shahveranova, who was one of awarded beneficiaries, described how she benefitted from the project during presentation of certificate ceremony. “Before the project, I had some ideas, but I couldn’t realize them. Thanks to this project, I will be able to launch my own business and at the same time I will also be able to provide job opportunities to three other people,” she said.

The Government of Azerbaijan, the US Agency for International Development and the UN Development Programme in Azerbaijan officially opened a Women Resource Center and a SYSLAB Employment Center in Masalli region of Azerbaijan on Thursday. These centers were established in the framework of the joint project on “Economic Empowerment for Enterpreneurship and Employment” which is implemented in partnership with the Ministry of Labour and Social Protection of the Population and the State Committee for Family, Women and Children Affairs. Both centers are located in the Massali Haydar Aliyev Center and are supported by the Executive Authority of Masalli.
Opening the ceremony, the Deputy Minister of Labour and Social Protection of the Population, Mr. Idris Isayev thanked the development partners on behalf of the Government of Azerbaijan for an initiative that will benefit both local communities and the whole region of the country.
Ms. Sadagat Gahramova, Deputy Chairperson of State Committee of Family, Women and Children Affairs, appreciated the continuation of supports provided to rural women to launch businesses of their dreams and expressed the readiness of the Committee for further collaboration.
UNDP Resident Representative, Mr. Ghulam M. Isaczai stressed the importance of women’s roles in socio-economic life and active youth participation for inclusive and sustainable development, especially in the rural areas of the country. “This partnership between the Government of Azerbaijan, USAID and UNDP helps women and youth improve their lives in a meaningful way by opening their own businesses, starting successful careers matching their aspirations, and by gaining control over their lives. This is equally important for both women and youth, who are often more vulnerable and susceptible to life’s challenges. By helping them, we are helping the future of this beautiful country.” Mr. Isaczai said in his speech.
Mr. Isaczai expressed his appreciation to the Head of Executive Authority of Masalli, Mr. Rafil Huseynov and the government partners for successful collaboration with the project team. “This event proves the stout commitment of all parties to one and the same mission, shared globally and locally – the Sustainable Development Goals.” he added.
Mr. Carter Wilbur, Economic Chief at the U.S. Embassy emphasized that by advancing women’s participation in the economy, it contributes to a stronger society. “By improving the capability of Employment Centers in Masalli to provide work related training, we enhance the ability of women and youth in this community not just to work, but also to innovate, to develop, and to act on new ideas in business and the workplace.”
The delegation met with project participants to hear how they benefited from the project and awarded with certificates the women who have launched their business under the project and the youth who had already found a job during the project cycle. They later visited a newly established ASAN center and the ASAN Support to Family Business (ABAD) in Masalli.
The purpose of the joint project on “Economic Empowerment for Enterpreneurship and Employment” is to support economic empowerment for women’s entrepreneurship and youth employment through capacity-building activities at a Women’s Resource Center and Employment Centers (SYSLAB) in the region.
