MOU with Nabil Bank

We are thrilled to announce the signing of an MOU between SAATH and NABIL BANK. This agreement marks a significant milestone in our ongoing efforts to empower women and adolescent girls through socio-economic development initiatives.

This partnership underscores our shared commitment to fostering sustainable development and improving the lives of women and adolescent girls. We look forward to working closely with Nabil Bank to achieve our common goals and drive meaningful change.

We will soon be implementing our shared activities to support the ecosystem of women's socio-economic development as a part of this collaboration.

Menstrual Hygiene and Management at Harisiddhi

In September, as part of our regular community engagement, in partnership with Danfe, we organized a workshop on Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) for women producers associated with our production partner in Lalitpur.

The workshop primarily focused on the menstrual cycle, hygiene practices, management, and access to menstrual hygiene products. To bridge the gap between knowledge and accessibility, we provide each participant with a menstrual hygiene kit at the conclusion of every training. These kits are produced by Danfe, while SAATH is responsible for facilitating and distributing them.
These sessions offer women from diverse professional backgrounds the opportunity to gain valuable information on menstruation and other aspects of SRHR.

SAATH is thrilled to be a part of Springboard Elevate Programme representing our sustainability partner, Danfe Works.
