Celebration of International Day of Rural Women
18 Oct, 2021

Khushhali Microfinance Bank Limited (KMBL) celebrated the International Day of Rural women by organizing a stitching training for women at Chak 367 Jalianwala, Tehseel Gojra of Punjab. The training was organized in collaboration of Society for Human Development. The theme for this year's International Day for Rural Women was: 'Rural women - Cultivating good food for all'. The bank salutes the resilience and contribution of rural women and believes that women in rural areas can increase their productivity and earnings by learning and developing new skills.

KMBL believes that young girls and women in our society need training and education, enabling them to play a crucial role in ensuring the sustainability of rural households and communities. More recognition of their capabilities and contributions towards improving the livelihood of rural homes, will motivate and empower them to add value and ensure the wellbeing of their families. KMBL remains committed to empower our female population, enabling them to become more self-reliant to earn a healthy income. Through these training programs, KMBL is making direct contribution to United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals #4 and #8, by substantially increasing the number of youth and adults who have relevant skills, including technical and vocational skills, for employment, decent jobs and entrepreneurship.
