Dominican Program 'Supérate' Boosts Women Entrepreneurs

Dominican Republic's 'Supérate' Program Empowers Women Entrepreneurs Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic – The Dominican Republic's government-run social protection program, Supérate, is making significant strides in supporting women entrepreneurs. The program, directed by Gloria Reyes, offers a multifaceted approach to empowering women economically. In a recent interview on Despierta con CDN, Reyes highlighted the program's success. "Supérate is a specialized program with a direct approach," Reyes explained. "We've worked with nearly 2,500 women in recent years, and this year, we're aiming to reach almost 800 more through 16 workshops across the country." The program's impact is evident in the success stories of women like Deyanira Solano, a businesswoman recognized by President Luis Abinader for her achievements. Solano credits Supérate's "Mujeres Superemprendedoras" program with providing her with the skills and support to thrive. "The program's workshops were transformative," Solano said. "They taught me valuable skills, not just in business, but also in managing my emotions and leading a team." Supérate's investment goes beyond workshops. It includes monetary transfers and support for social inclusion and skills development. The program's holistic approach to empowering women is setting an example for other social programs and is contributing significantly to the economic growth and social development of the Dominican Republic.
