It is well known that women especially, have ended up in poverty due to low literacy levels, lack of employment, widowhood, teenage pregnancy and single parenthood.
We are working with the women to create social and economic opportunities by motivating and inspiring them to discover and improve their talents. They have come together in a group and started a project of Gara tie and dying, whereby they use their talents to create beautiful designs on white materials, which end up very colorful and attractive. The women are also involved in small-scale agricultural activities. We intend to expand irrigation capacity in order to increase production and income. Our priorities remain: creating awareness, facilitating, and providing access towards achieving of women rights.
