About About the place

The Women's Skills Development Organization operates shops, notably 'Woven', offering a range of beautifully crafted textiles, bags, and accessories. These products are made by Nepali women who receive training and fair employment through the organization. The initiative aims to empower women economically and socially, providing them with sustainable livelihoods. Visitors appreciate the quality of the goods, the ethical sourcing, and the opportunity to support a worthwhile cause. A factory outlet is also available for a more comprehensive selection and potentially lower prices. The organization acknowledges ongoing challenges in achieving full gender equality within Nepal's cultural norms.
