The overall objective of the Programme is to stimulate the transition to more competitive and inclusive economies in the Eastern Partnership countries through a strengthened role of women-led MSMEs in the economy. In other words, it aims at ensuring that women entrepreneurs in these countries have a real and fair chance of success.

The specific objectives of the Programme are as follows:
i. Increased access to finance for women-led micro, small and medium-sized businesses (MSMEs), including for first-time/start-up borrowers and borrowers based outside of main urban centres
ii. Diversified and deepened financial system through increased capacity of PFIs to serve the women entrepreneur segment
iii. Improve the availability and terms of long-term local currency funding for women-led businesses in the region by incentivising locally operating financial intermediaries to actively pursue funding to women-led MSMEs and increasing the overall long-term funding amounts that are lent to women-led MSMEs
iv. Increased access to know-how and business development expertise for women entrepreneurs, using in particular digital mechanisms to further increase the outreach
v. Increased skills and expanded networks for women entrepreneurs
