Quantitative Signs of Goal Attainment

In workshops conducted on rural energy, women constituted approximately 40% of the participants. This is in addition to the seminar on energy and water usage which was given exclusively for women in Banga village. Also, about one-third of workshop facilitators were women. An energy institute for girls designed to cultivate their interest in SMET education and careers was conducted around the country with massive participation by girls from local schools. Several interests have been expressed by government, businesses and NGOs to use the Community Center facilities in Banga for manpower/workforce development training. The government in collaboration with private sector is also planning to use the new facility for training young women and girls on tourism and hospitality for the Kruger Park, as the park plans to open a gate in Mozambique soon. The enrollment of women in SMET disciplines at tertiary education institutions in the country has reason.
