Economic Empowerment Initiative through Creative Industries

Our Community Empowerment work focuses on creating pathways to opportunity, wellbeing, and sustainable growth through locally led solutions.

Economic Empowerment Initiative through Creative Industries

As part of this pillar, the Economic Empowerment Initiative through Creative Industries expands access to skills training, entrepreneurship, workforce development, and income-generating opportunities in Sierra Leone. Through creative fields such as fashion, textiles, design, and local production, the initiative supports individuals in building practical skills, confidence, and pathways to long-term economic stability.

Thread of Hope

Thread of Hope is one of the projects within this initiative, focused on tailoring and textile-based skill development and income generation.

This work is implemented in partnership with Tesmaraneh, a locally led social enterprise that supports training, production, and mentorship on the ground, helping translate opportunity into real, sustainable impact within the community.
