<p class="MsoNormal">Dear all,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br>
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We are delighted to invite you to the Haydn Green Institute’s upcoming public seminar:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br>
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight:normal"><u><span style="font-size: 16pt;">Creating Enterprising Futures:</span><span style="font-size: 16pt;">
</span><span style="font-size: 16pt;">micro enterprise amongst women refugees in the Middle East
</span><o:p></o:p></u></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight:normal"><span style="font-size: 16pt;">Thursday 17 May</span><o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight:normal"><span style="font-size: 16pt;">18:00 – 20:30</span><o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center; "><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight:normal"><span style="font-size: 16pt;">The Ingenuity Centre, The University of Nottingham, Jubilee Campus</span><o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center; "><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight:normal"><br>
</b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify">The impact of conflict within the Middle East, whether in Palestine, Iraq or Syria, has caused the displacement of millions of people – the majority of whom seek refuge in neighbouring countries. Jordan, Lebanon
and Turkey have been the major recipients of displaced refugees either into camps or, as informal settlers in the poorer peripheral areas of large cities such as Beirut, Ankara and Amman. Within this volatile context, women and children are particularly affected,
bearing the brunt of displacement, poverty and gender-based violence. To counter poverty and dependency, micro-entrepreneurship is deemed increasingly important; it offers opportunities for women to use traditional skills to create artisan goods and services
and so create incomes and improve status.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><br>
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight:normal">During this seminar, Professor Susan Marlow (Haydn Green Institute, The University of Nottingham); Dr Haya Al Dajani (Futures Entrepreneurship Centre, The University of Plymouth); and Dr Nasser Yassin,
(American University Beirut) will present evidence from an Economic and Social Research Council & Department for International Development funded intervention project regarding the efficacy of micro-enterprise to change lives.<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight:normal"><br>
</b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Working with refugee women in Lebanon, Jordan and Turkey and a range of intermediary organisations, they critically evaluate the potential of micro-enterprise to generate income, offer independence and empowerment to women whose lives
have been devastated by conflict, violence and forced displacement.</b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight:normal"><br>
