One integral aspect of the project is the formation of Women Income and Nutrition Group (WING) engaging women from targeted fishing households. WING aims to empower its members through nutrition-sensitive alternative income generating activities supported by the implementation of the Business Literacy School (BLS). The project provides WING members with a BLS book, serving as an educational tool for basic literacy and business development. Through carefully structured sessions and exercises, WING members develop foundational skills, including reading and writing the Bangla alphabet, constructing words and sentences, numerical literacy (1-100), and basic arithmetic operations. The BLS book unfolds over 24 sessions scheduled for 12 months (2 sessions/month), inclusive of mid-term and final assessments designed to appraise learning progress. Project recruited and trained local Community Volunteer (CV) facilitate the BLS sessions. The expected results is that, through active participation in discussions during the BLS sessions and practical engagement with the book, WING members will acquire invaluable skills and experiences in reading, writing, and accounting for their income generating activities.
