Madina Baghakashvili is a woman who lives in Karajala village, in Telavi municipality with her mother and father-in-laws and two children. She always had desire to run her own sewing business, as she was very good at tailoring. However, in order to start this business she needed some financial resources, which she didn’t have.
With hope of improving her financial situation for better future, Madina participated in the Women's Economic Empowerment project, supported by UN Women. In the framework of the project, Madina purchased sewing machines, fabrics and other materials.
Mostly Madina sews the linen but she can also remake different clothes. As an active woman, Madina wants to improve her knowledge and professionalize her work. To do this, she need additional materials and inventory, particularly a big table.
The project “Women’s Economic Empowerment through Social Mobilization and Capacity Building” is supported by Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC), Austrian Development Cooperation (ADC) and the United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women (UN Women), implemented in Georgia by Kakheti Regional Development Foundation (KRDF), Taso Foundation (TF), and CARE International in the Caucasus (CARE).
