Our Mission
Fémina Oaxaca – Centro de Oportunidades (fémina stands for woman in Spanish) is the first institution of the state of Oaxaca, Mexico to serve as an exclusive business incubator for Oaxacan women, as well as a center for job opportunities, training, discussion, mutual learning,
and sorority, while offering childcare services at no cost. Additionally, and thanks to alliances already established with different actors and key partners, participants will be able to receive medical care, psychological and legal counseling at affordable rates, as this will contribute to
their general well-being.
Monitoring & Evaluation
In conjunction with the Secretariat of Business Development of the Municipality of Oaxaca de Juárez, Fémina Oaxaca conducted a survey during the last trimester on 2023 in order to gather sociodemographic data on female entrepreneurs and business owners in this city.
The survey also had questions on business development and administration and challenges of this population in the capital of the state of Oaxaca in southern Mexico. Fémina´s goal was to incorporate these findings in their programs to better cater to female entrepreneurs´
needs and promote growth within their businesses; areas of opportunity were also made
visible.
