The Monsoon Accessorize Trust are committed to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goal 4, to gain inclusive and equitable quality education for all. By educating children we give the next generation the tools to fight poverty and encourage them to be advocates for change. A quality education lays the foundations for a child’s future and teachers are the catalysts who can make this happen. Equipping teachers to address the diverse needs of children and engage them in meaningful learning is an urgent necessity if we are to address the crisis in education in developing countries.
The goal of the project is to create a sustainable income generating activity which uses a participatory approach, strongly emphasising the local environment. Promoting women empowerment and ensuring that each aspect of the project management cycle puts women at the forefront.
The fund’s main priority is to provide healthcare for mothers and children, and help break down the vicious cycle of inequity. This includes access to basic hygiene practices and sanitation, and nutritional care to help prevent stunting which affects millions of children across the world. Better community health has immediate benefits. In the long term, these benefits translate into higher life expectancy, a more productive labour force, increased wages and savings and lower treatment costs, ultimately fuelling a cycle of growth and greater investments in the economy.
