Noksha O Jibon: Empowering Women, Building a Brighter Future

Noksha O Jibon is a groundbreaking project that aims to empower rural women in Bangladesh and contribute to the country’s thriving garment industry. Founded through a collaborative effort between DFBY Foundation and Care & Shine Foundation, Noksha O Jibon envisions a future where women are equipped with valuable skills, achieve financial independence, and become active participants in Bangladesh’s economic growth.

The Need and the Opportunity

Bangladesh has become a global leader in apparel manufacturing, recognized for its high-quality garments and skilled workforce. However, a significant gap exists when it comes to female participation within the industry, particularly in rural regions. Many talented women lack the necessary training and opportunities to contribute to this booming sector. Noksha O Jibon addresses this disparity by providing comprehensive training programs in sewing, cutting, and embroidery techniques. This initiative equips women with the skills they need to excel in the garment industry and forge a path towards financial security.
