PROJECT SAFEGUARD
PROJECT SAFEGUARD: THREADS OF HOPE AND STITCHING FUTURES ” is a comprehensive initiative aimed at addressing social challenges related to the involvement of women and children in the sex trade. The project focuses on creating sustainable change by providing alternative employment opportunities in garment factories. Through the development of skills and economic empowerment, Project Renew seeks to uplift vulnerable populations, fostering a community where individuals can break free from exploitative circumstances. The initiative embodies a positive and forward-looking approach, weaving together the fabric of change, hope, and opportunity to build a brighter future for those involved.
In 2020, we embarked on a powerful journey to Bangladesh, visiting the world’s largest brothels. During this eye-opening experience, I conducted 75 interviews with victims of human trafficking, including brave girls as young as 9 years old, all aspiring to break free from the confines of the brothels. This journey fuelled a deeper understanding of the need for comprehensive support systems and initiatives to address the root causes and provide pathways for those seeking to escape these circumstances. It also revealed their indomitable spirit and determination to secure a brighter future through education.
The funds raised will be dedicated to constructing more safe and nurturing learning environment, offering a pathway to education for those who might otherwise face significant challenges. Bringing hope, empowerment, and a brighter future to the lives of these deserving children.
We aim to provide comprehensive training to women, equipping them with the skills needed to become expert seamstresses. These sewing centers serve as hubs of empowerment, offering not only technical expertise but also fostering a supportive community. The program is designed to unlock economic opportunities for women, enabling them to build sustainable livelihoods and become self-reliant. “Stitching Dreams” stands as a testament to the potential of skill development to uplift communities and empower women to pursue expertise in the art of sewing, opening doors to a brighter and more independent future.
