THE Ministry of Human Services and Social Security is taking a holistic approach to ensure that while they provide all the necessary services for vulnerable persons, who are mostly women, they also provide them with opportunities to develop themselves.

Towards this end, the Ministry is preparing to host a Women’s Trade Fair scheduled to be held at the end of July.

According to a statement from the Government Information Agency (GINA), the trade fair seeks to provide a forum for talented women to showcase their locally made products.

This event is also being envisaged as an avenue through which women can promote and market their goods.

As such, the Ministry is encouraging persons or groups which is engaged in arts and craft and would like to participate in the event to send their information to dvpolicyunit@gmail.com or call telephone number 223-6041.

Persons who are interested are asked to note that the products must be of locally made or grown materials.

Persons are not required to be producing on a large scale as the Ministry’s aim is to garner recognition for talented women who use local materials.
