The target group analysis for the present project focuses on a group of thirty women entrepreneurs from the informal sector working and living in the district of N’Gola Kiluange, which is an urban musseque community in Sambizanga Municipality, located at 8km from the centre of Luanda. Before independence the area was zoned as an industrial district with a low density population. Today the population of the area has grown dramatically and is fuelled by an increasing rate of rural urban migration. The informal sector in N’Gola Kiluange is an important part of community life. Everything from day to day purchases of basic consumer goods to shoe shines to car maintenance to health care is available in the informal market. As yet, there is no precedent, either NGO or governmental for a planned intervention to provide technical assistance, financing or training to improve, develop or support entrepreneurial activities within the informal sector in Angola.
