Summary
Zindagi Now Project
Zindagi Now is an NGO that provides education, business and management training, design and jewellery production skills, and sustainable employment to Afghan men and women. This project was born from a collaboration between Design Nokhba Kabuland and UK-based jeweller Pippa Small. Together, they provide a safe and creative space for women to make jewellery and develop business skills. Completing this program gives women a new sense of confidence, empowerment, and the opportunity for a new life with financial independence and hope.
Since Zindagi Now’s inception in April of 2022, they have trained and provided an income to 120 Afghan women, yet this project’s continued success depends on further funding.
