Sustaining women’s empowerment for development in resource-limited settings: an exploratory qualitative approach

WDN has contributed to multidimensional development goals, especially health services uptake and environmental sanitation<i>.</i> However, over time, it became flaccid and lost adequate emphasis from most of its stakeholders and supportive structures. Therefore, considering such vital inputs from community participation in resource-limited settings, stakeholders should offer adequate attention to WDN in terms of selection, training, orientation, follow-up, and acquainting with the community they serve. Moreover, efforts are needed to retain women voluntarily serving and build positive images across all stakeholders and fellow women receiving the services.
