Skill Up for Equality Program
Empower & Equality Program
WHY WE CARE
At KKR, we believe empowering women is essential for driving social and economic progress. Women are key contributors to their families and communities, yet many face barriers to education and employment. By investing in vocational skills training, we aim to empower women to build brighter futures, creating a ripple effect of positive change within their communities. Empowered women uplift their families, improve health and education, and contribute to economic stability. We are committed to fostering gender equality and supporting women in becoming agents of transformation.
WHAT WE DO
KKR supports Vocational Skills in Tailoring and Beautician Training Programs focused on empowering women and young girls from economically disadvantaged communities. Through practical training, participants gain the ability to generate income, fostering greater independence. These initiatives not only enhance their skillsets but also open doors to better opportunities, enabling women to build more secure and prosperous futures for themselves and their families, while contributing to long-term sustainable development.
