- With regard to Objective 3 of the project, pre-Induction and post-factory employment opportunities: Outputs related to pre-industry induction and life-skills awareness raising have been attained through the development of a curriculum for pre-industry life skills training, which was merely piloted in a training of young rural women and garment workers by World Education (WE). Impact is noted through beneficiariesÂ’ stories of changing savings and spending practices, as well as in changing eating habits and food hygiene. The project
did not reach the stage of conducting the planned trainings in collaboration with other existing training providers.
The outputs that seek to assess potential sectors for post industry livelihood assistance for garment workers, through the formation of Self Help Groups (SHGs) in savings and loans as a start-up for business development, have been partly attained. 60 SHGs were formed. About half of them are reported to function well in savings and loans. Only a small number of groups have started doing business that is still in a developmental stage. Continued support and guidance are needed to make them grow into viable economic options for post garment workers.
