Women for Conservation aims to uplift women from ethnic minorities in Nepal by providing job training in sustainable textile production. This project, supported by Birds Nepal, focuses on breaking the cycle of poverty through skill development and economic empowerment.
Women from ethnic minorities in Nepal face economic marginalization, limited opportunities, and cultural barriers, leaving them vulnerable to poverty. Lack of skills and access to sustainable livelihoods perpetuates a cycle of financial dependence and hinders community development.
Women for Conservation addresses these challenges by offering comprehensive job training programs in sustainable textile production. Women will learn valuable skills in weaving and textile craftsmanship, enabling them to engage in environmentally friendly businesses. This initiative fosters economic independence and empowers women to contribute to their families and communities positively.
This project creates a lasting impact by providing women with the tools to break free from poverty. As trained artisans, these women become catalysts for change within their communities. The sustainable livelihoods they establish contribute to local economic growth and environmental conservation. Empowering women in ethnic minorities sets the stage for improved gender equality, community resilience, and a sustainable future.
