Mzia Jabishvili is an active woman from the village of Tsinubani in Akhmeta Municipality. Mzia was interested in culinary and always wanted to work in this field.
For new opportunities Mzia participated in the Women`s Economic Empowerment project supported by UN Women. With the help of the project, she purchased the appropriate inventory and opened a bakery at home. In addition, she took culinary courses within the project, where she met one of the project participants, Lela Seturi, and got a job in her café as well.
Finally, Mzia is very happy with the project. When she is not working in a cafe, she bakes various delicacies at home: cakes, other baked products, etc.
The project “Women’s Economic Empowerment through Social Mobilization and Capacity Building” is supported by Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC), Austrian Development Cooperation (ADC) and the United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women (UN Women), implemented in Georgia by Kakheti Regional Development Foundation (KRDF), Taso Foundation (TF), and CARE International in the Caucasus (CARE).
