Starting in April we were able to conduct two different vocational Trainings.Through ONGD (Organization from Luxemburg) we were able to offer a knitting training to 15 women. Over 3 month the women could learn to knit and afterwards find work with local export companies.
The second training was sponsored through TEPC (government of Nepal). A felt craftprogram for 25 women. This gave many already trained women the chance to improve their skills and learn more. It was also a great opportunity for 5 new women who were able to get training in felting and stay and work with EPSA afterwards.This year in April we were able to find work for 5 women as felting teachers in different companies. To get a job there has been a great opportunity for those women. It offers them a good and steady income.
At the moment we are busy with orders from the US, Europe as well as from the local market.
