LWH (Local Women’s Handicrafts) is a collective in Nepal founded by Nasreen Sheikh, who has firsthand experience with the challenges many women face in the garment industry. After leaving a sweatshop job herself, she started LWH as a small initiative to train other women in handicrafts and textile production. Over time, LWH has expanded and now includes several centers across Nepal, offering women new opportunities.
LWH’s mission is to support women from disadvantaged backgrounds by equipping them with skills and resources to improve their lives. The women receive training, a stipend, and a safe place to stay while learning skills such as weaving, embroidery, or jewelry making. They also get access to basic education and health services. Once their training is complete, they can choose to continue working with LWH or start their own ventures.
