Salamanca association hosts forum for rural women entrepreneurs

The Asociación Escuelas Campesinas de Salamanca is organizing a forum for rural women in Monleras. Under the theme ‘Mujeres construyendo alternativas en el medio rural’, the event aims to recognize and support female labor in agriculture, caregiving, and economic innovation.

The program includes an experience table featuring three entrepreneurial projects from the northwest of Salamanca. These include Facendera Arribes, which focuses on socio-community intervention against depopulation, and Al pie del abismo, which works on the recovery of native varieties. The initiative is part of a program to promote the social and professional integration of women in areas affected by depopulation and limited opportunities.
