    From 15 to 17 July 2024, the facilitators, among them Deutcha Laure, Djounang Axel and Maliago Ingrid, covered developing a business idea, market research, financial forecasting, digital marketing on Facebook and Instagram, and business psychology. Attendance grew from 8 on the first day to 15 on each of the next two days.

    **15 refugee women and girls were certified** and left with a business idea, a method to test it and their own social media business pages. A WhatsApp group keeps participants and trainers in contact.

    The second mental health campaign of BRIGHT, with 45 participants, took place during the training.
