Lasting development seeks to meet the needs of the present while taking an active part to engage the needs most likely to impact future generations. Sustainable development begins with an acknowledgement that everyone in the community has a role to play and a gift to give.
Economic empowerment plays a major role in integral development, providing women with resources to help them support themselves and their families. At Asian Partners International, we work to empower women in entrepreneurship so that they might start their own business and gain economic freedom.
Our courses empower women by teaching them valuable skills to kickstart their entrepreneurial journey. Through our sewing programs, women receive a sewing machine for use during their classes. Upon program completion, they take the sewing machine home to launch their micro-businesses. This program provides them with the skill development in tailoring and sewing as well as in-depth training in small business management.
We believe that empowering women is key to creating a brighter future for the communities of north India. By equipping them with practical skills and resources, we are not only helping them achieve financial independence and stability but also fostering a sense of self-worth and confidence. Our sewing programs not only provide women with the means to generate income but also offer them an avenue for creative expression and personal growth. Many of our students have found it to be a source of joy and fulfillment, providing them with the opportunity to engage their communities in new ways.
We long to see the women of India acknowledge their own worth. We pray that they would come to a deep understanding of their own value; that they would know how precious they are to their families and communities. We long for them to know that they have the right to be seen and heard.
