15 women took part in this training, which was in charge of the family extension agents of the Stoplight Initiative, who also worked on raising awareness to prevent the spread of COVID-19, in addition to other diseases, through the habit of hygiene, especially during this time of health crisis. Extension agents urged artisans to take advantage of this new business opportunity.
