In total, 126 direct beneficiaries (73 women and 53 men) and 62 indirect beneficiaries (35 women and 27 men) were impacted. Likewise, a business fair called “Emprendeland” was held in coordination with the Progress Bank and the Mayor’s Office of Cúcuta, having some of the business projects that benefited from the Inclusive Cities project, being the first productive activity after they received fund injection.
