In Bangladesh, women from disadvantaged socio-economic backgrounds are often oppressed because of their lack of knowledge and skills. To facilitate social security and economic development of destitute women, APON Foundation has taken initiatives to provide vocational training to destitute women since 2016, most of whom are guardians of the children of APON School. For this purpose APON has set up a sewing training center at Rayer Bazzar, Dhaka. Upon successful completion of the training period, sewing machines are distributed among the trainees.
