Title: Women Skill Development Center Inaugurated in Dir Lower
Summary
Alkhidmat Foundation has successfully inaugurated a Women Skill Development Center in Dir Lower, creating new opportunities for women to learn practical skills and move toward financial independence. The center aims to empower women through vocational training, income generation, and self-reliance.
This initiative is part of Alkhidmat’s broader commitment to women empowerment and sustainable livelihood development in underserved areas.
Story / Update
Women in remote districts like Dir Lower often face limited access to education, vocational training, and employment opportunities. These challenges restrict their ability to contribute economically and support their families.
To address this gap, Alkhidmat Foundation inaugurated a Women Skill Development Center in Dir Lower. The center will offer training in market-relevant skills such as tailoring, embroidery, handicrafts, and other vocational trades, enabling women to earn a dignified livelihood from their homes or through small enterprises.
The inauguration ceremony was attended by community members and local stakeholders, who welcomed this initiative as a positive step toward women’s empowerment and community development. The center is expected to play a vital role in improving household incomes and strengthening social resilience.
