Through OUAGANET’s goat empowerment program, women receive goats as a practical and sustainable way to fight extreme poverty. A goat can provide long-term value through reproduction, milk, manure for farming, and eventual income from sales. This support gives women more than an animal; it gives them a pathway to dignity, independence, and hope.
Since goats reproduce, the impact can grow from one family to another. As the herd increases, women can better support their children’s education, improve household nutrition, and meet basic family needs. OUAGANET’s goal is to help women build small, sustainable livestock assets that can break the cycle of poverty and create lasting change in their communities.
