Federation of Syrian Chambers of Commerce Defines Duties of Businesswomen Council Headed by Nadine Al-Shawi to Boost Economic Empowerment
The Federation of Syrian Chambers of Commerce has outlined the framework and operational strategy for the "Businesswomen Council" for the current term, chaired by Ms. Nadine Al-Shawi, a board member of the Federation. This comes through a clear formulation of the core duties and responsibilities assigned to the council to enhance the role of women in the Syrian economic landscape.

-
Empowerment and Investment Expansion: Supporting existing and emerging projects, and working to open new horizons and investment opportunities for businesswomen.
-
Qualification and Skill Development: Launching specialized training and qualification programs aimed at raising professional and managerial efficiency in the labor market.
-
Networking and Relationship Building: Bridging communication gaps and establishing strong local and international ties to exchange expertise and expand cooperation.
-
Contribution to Decision-Making: Actively participating in formulating general economic policies and proposing recommendations that serve the business environment.
-
Promotion and Marketing: Organizing exhibitions, events, and diverse activities to introduce and market the products and services of businesswomen locally and internationally.
-
Support and Consultation System: Providing integrated advisory services covering legal, financial, and administrative aspects to ensure project sustainability.
-
Social Responsibility and Development: Enhancing women's participation in the labor market as a primary driving force that supports comprehensive economic development pathways.
It is worth noting that this approach represents a further step by the Federation of Syrian Chambers of Commerce to empower young female leaders and expand their involvement in the finance and business sectors, reflecting positively on sustainable development
