Ghunsa – Income

For the women in Ghunsa, we have supported two ways to generate income. One is income from vegetable production, and the other is from a sewing workshop established in 2020.

Plants and vegetables:

• the model farm sold about 1,300 vegetable plants and about 3,000 kg of vegetables in 2020, with the money benefiting the cooperative’s programs
• the women have also been able to successfully sell their vegetables at local markets

Sewing workshop:

• the sewing workshop was built in 2020 and five women were trained by the already experienced women from Chyangsar
• professional washable sanitary pads and masks could be produced.
• the first sanitary pads could already be sold in 2020 by the cooperative to the government and in the village.
• The women pass on their experience in the form of trainings to the other villages.
