|title=Kerala to set up India's first trade centre for women}}</ref> designed to help women [[entrepreneur]]s by providing a safe space away from home to set up or expand their businesses and market their products abroad.<br />
<br />
It also has a dedicated space to promote performing arts and cultural forms like dance, music and theatre for women.<br />
<br />
Currently Kerala is setting-up its first centre in [[Kozhikode]]. The initiative is in its first phase, and is based on the [[United Nations]]' [[Sustainable Development Goals]] (SDGs) with the principle of "leaving no one behind".<br />
<br />
The centre is housed in environmentally-friendly and resource-efficient buildings. A [[Day care|crèche]] and daycare centre is available for children, adults and the elderly, to help the businesswomen to focus on their work.<br />
