During his visit to the Zaha Center on Monday, Bakkar was briefed on project plans and products created by women participating in the initiative.

He noted that amendments to the Labor Law in recent years, along with updated regulations and instructions, have reinforced these efforts. Additionally, he pointed out that the Development and Employment Fund, which he chairs, provides financing options for women’s projects through soft loans.

She added that the center is coordinating with the Ministry of Labor and the Development and Employment Fund to develop these initiatives further.
