Barefoot College International
We are dedicated to supporting the livelihoods of rural women who are often marginalised and lack access to resources and opportunities. We believe that empowering them is essential for achieving sustainable development and Climate Justice. Our initiatives focus on creating sustainable livelihoods through entrepreneurship, vocational training, and market access. By working closely with rural women, we aim to create a more equitable and prosperous society that benefits everyone.
