Tailoring Course

Empowering Afghan girls with vocational skills in tailoring to build economic independence and support their families.

Overview

The Tailoring Course is a vocational training initiative designed to empower Afghan girls with practical skills in dressmaking and fashion design. In a context where educational and professional opportunities for women are severely restricted, this program provides a vital pathway to economic independence and self-reliance.

Impact

The program has successfully trained numerous young women, enabling them to start their own small businesses or work from home. This not only provides them with a sustainable income but also boosts their confidence and status within their communities. Families benefit directly from the additional income, leading to better living conditions and opportunities for other family members.

Methodology

The course combines theoretical knowledge of fabric types, measurements, and design with intensive practical training. Students learn to operate sewing machines, draft patterns, and construct various types of garments. The curriculum is designed to be accessible to beginners while also offering advanced techniques for those who wish to specialize. We provide all necessary materials and equipment, ensuring that financial barriers do not prevent participation.
