From 2025 to 2030, 15 million Tajik somoni will be allocated annually for 200 grants of the President of Tajikistan to support and develop women’s entrepreneurship.
The grants are aimed at creating conditions for the exercise of women’s rights and economic opportunities, ensuring their equal participation in public life, increasing women’s competitiveness in the labor market, developing folk crafts, including women and girls in employment and vocational training, creating new jobs, and fostering women’s entrepreneurship.
By direct instruction of President Emomali Rahmon, presidential grants have been increased from 120 grants of 5 million somoni in 2024 to 200 grants of 15 million somoni in 2025.
When allocating grants for projects, priority is given to vulnerable segments of the population, women with disabilities who undertake the implementation of the project or those aimed at ensuring the employment of such women, women with disabled children, as well as innovative projects and the development of national arts and crafts.
Since 2006, such grant funds in the amount of 30 million somoni have been allocated to 1,185 women, contributing to the economic development of families and women’s entrepreneurial activities.
