Sachham part-time work program

Very often, the women are responsible for raising and caring for their children - their husbands work abroad, are long-distance bus drivers, or harvest workers and are therefore rarely or never at home. This makes it impossible for many women to work full-time.

With the project of producing sanitary pads for ShantiMed Nepal, Ruth Gonseth's project in Ratnanagar/Chitwan, we have reached exactly these women and given them the opportunity to work flexibly. We have decided to use this positive experience and continue to acquire textile orders.
This step means that, in addition to Bishnu Tamang, we need another professional who has experience in large-scale productions and can guide the women accordingly.
At the same time, we also see the step of offering mass production as Module 3 of our training (Advanced+) , in which we provide participants with additional knowledge about mass production.
