 Beads from Hatti TradingFair Trade does make a difference. At the Hatti production centre in Kathmandu, young women who had been trafficked as children and subsequently rescued by The Esther Benjamins Trust are employed under fair trade conditions. After a time of rehabilitation with the charity and as soon as there is a permanent vacancy, the older girls (min age 17) are offered the opportunity to work at the production centre. They are provided with safe, secure accommodation with a house mother to care for them and trained at the production centre. They are paid a good monthly wage, holiday, sickness, hospital fees and maternity pay and helped to adjust to life. This is a successful demonstration of Aid and Fair Trade working together to help change the lives of young women for the better, permanently |
