LVRSustainable is proud to introduce a series of stories, as shared with us by the International NGO, Oxfam.
Our collaboration will share stories of real life women and the changes they have been empowered to achieve with the help of Oxfam and your donations.
The first real life story focuses on the struggles and empowerment of Ishrat, as we recount her story. Learn more about how to help .
Ishrat, 33 is among many other women in Shadipura, Lahore who are not allowed to step out of their neighborhoods without being accompanied by a male relative. She has joined the skills training institute in Shadipura, Lahore to learn a skill which would help her earn an income, while working from home. Oxfam, through local implementing partners, helped to build three skill-training institutions, where women who do not have a source of livelihood but are prevented from leaving their neighborhoods due to social restrictions, can earn a living wage. Guaranteeing women full rights and equal economic, cultural and social opportunities are essential for a more just and equitable society.
Together with @oxfamitalia we want to overcome inequality, against all discriminations.
