Challenge

By providing women with sewing skills, the project will enable them to start their own businesses, overcome poverty, and challenge societal expectations that often restrict their potential. It will empower women to become financially independent and contribute to the economic growth of their communities.

Solution

Once trained, they will also teach others, creating a sustainable cycle of empowerment. This initiative tackles gender inequality by offering women the skills needed to break the poverty cycle and contribute to the economic growth of their communities.

Long-Term Impact

Job creation also has a huge long-term impact, as these businesses grow there are more opportunities to employ other women in the community, together we can develop communities and empower women
