Es importante señalar el reconocimiento que han hecho las familias en torno a la equidad de género, el 85% de las personas beneficiadas son mujeres y el 15% son hombres. Algunas de estas con pequeños negocios y en su mayoría madres solteras.
Las mujeres que participan en en el proyecto mostraron empoderamiento de sus derechos; muchas de ellas defendieron su participación en el proyecto ante actitudes de machismo y poder de sus parejas.
Estoy consciente que en el contexto de las ONG existe y es válido el término "empower", e incluso "empowerment" pero "displayed empowerment of their rights" o "displayed their empowerment of their rights"??

have shown/gained/taken ownership of their rights
In that sense, one of the most important strategies has concerned the framework of
laws guaranteeing women’s rights, from watching the preparation of bills and lobbying on their writing and approval in legislature, to watching implementation and developing training processes for women so they can take ownership of their rights.
Empowering community members through these dialogues and debates is the beginning of creating an environment where individuals take ownership of their rights and begin not only to understand them, but to also be able to hold appropriate people or institutions accountable.
