Bangladesh: Prokritee
Prokritee was established to develop the social and economic capacity of rural, disadvantaged women in Bangladesh. In a country where half the population lives in poverty, women suffer the most. Prokritee’s income-generating projects provide needed opportunities for women who are widows, single mothers, or heads-of-household with little or no income. They currently run eight handcraft enterprises which provide work and income for hundreds of women throughout Bangladesh. By providing jobs for women, Prokritee is able to improve their standard of living and help them send their children to school.
