Network Of Rural Women Producers, Trinidad and Tobago

NRWPTT is promoting Rural Women and Girls

Following the Organization of American States (OAS) “First Ladies Hemispheric Conference” held in Chile in 1995, a significant outcome was a meeting of Non governmental Organisations (NGOs) which focus on rural women and rural communities. Our First Lady, with the support of Inter-American Institute for Co-operation on Agriculture (IICA), called a number of existing NGO’s to formulate the guidelines for the establishment of the Network of Rural Women Producers, Trinidad and Tobago (NRWPTT). NRWPTT was formed in 1995 and is a national umbrella organization comprising a membership of over 60 small businesses and individuals.
