NEW Pathways to Enterprise is dedicated to empowering women for profitable, fulfilling livelihoods so they can achieve their dreams of a better life for their families.
NEW Pathways’ approach — From Learning to Livelihood Through our Learning to Livelihood program, coupled with business start-up support, we serve as an incubator of new businesses for and by women. We guide women through the entrepreneurial process from business idea generation through business start-up. We offer a series of IdeaShops that encourage women to explore, evaluate, and select business alternatives that offer profitable returns and opportunities for creativity and increased self-esteem.
 | Level 1: IdeaShop for Business Idea Generation Successful entrepreneurs share information about their work and inspire women to select livelihoods with high potential. Exploring business alternatives is an essential first step in the entrepreneurial process which is absent from most livelihood training programs for women. |
 | Level 2: IdeaShop for Livelihood Skills Training Livelihood training by entrepreneurs and livelihood experts imparts practical skills through hands-on sessions, developing women's abilities and confidence. Participants receive the technical skills required to engage in livelihoods selected by the women themselves. |
 /> | Level 3: IdeaShop for Business Skills Training Strategic planning and management, marketing and financial skills necessary for business operations are featured, including business plans, cash flow and profitability analysis. |
 | Level 4: Business Start-up with IMPACT (Integrating Market Performance And Commercial Transactions) Women launch their businesses, following detailed business plans. Participants are nurtured with great care during this phase. We provide start-up capital and equipment. Local partners provide mentoring and monitoring services. |
- 400+ graduates of innovative livelihood programs

- 16 communities in remote areas of the Philippines have received training and assistance
- 90% of donations are applied directly to livelihood programs
