"The Elected Women of Karak' project was selected from over 100 initiatives because we believe in the importance of women’s empowerment, and also in the fact that such impactful initiatives don’t have to originate from capitals or major cities. This project, implemented by the Karak Castle Center for Consultations and Training, is highly effective, and we hope to see it replicated across other governorates."
