Textiles

My name is Monjila. My husband works in the garments industry but his salary is not enough to provide for our family’s needs. We have two sons. I am thankful for the opportunity to sew blankets for Basha in my home so I can help provide for our family and educate my sons.

Airine's Story My name is Airine. I completed six Airine's Story

My name is Airine. I completed six months of training and now I am ready for work in production. I learned many things during the training time. I learned how I can love and respect myself, how to make the right decisions, and how I can manage my family and money. I learned many things these past six months and it has changed my life. I want to make a good life now. After five years, I want to have savings for my future. Because I have no baby, I want to adopt a baby. I have lots of friends and I tell them to come to Basha and work with honesty. I love to work here. One thing I love very much is respect. Everyone here at Basha respects each other. As well, all office staff and the artisans are treated as equals. Here staff encourage me lots and love it very much.

It's Fashion Revolution Week!⁠ ⁠ Fashion Revol It's Fashion Revolution Week!⁠
⁠
Fashion Revolution week happens every year in the week surrounding the 24th of April. This date is the anniversary of the 2013 Rana Plaza collapse.⁠
⁠
Rana Plaza, a building in Bangladesh, housed a number of garment factories, employing around 5,000 people. The people in this building were manufacturing clothing for many of the biggest global fashion brands. More than 1,100 people – mostly young women – died in the collapse and another 2,500 were injured, making it the fourth largest industrial disaster in history. ⁠
⁠
At Basha we believe in creating a safe place for Basha artisans and their children to work, grow, learn, and thrive. To learn more about our programmes and our sister organisation @friendsofbasha visit our website: ⁠
