A ceremony was held at OBAT’s Chittagong Women Empowerment Center to celebrate the achievements of 25 women who just completed the three-month training program.
The training program covered a wide range of topics, including cutting, measuring, design, and sewing. The women learned how to make a variety of garments, including dresses, trousers, pants, and scarves. They also learned how to use different sewing machines and how to troubleshoot common sewing problems.
At the end of the training program, the women were given a certificate of completion. They were also given prizes, including sewing machines and fabric with which to start their own work.
The women who participated in the training program were very grateful for the opportunity, saying that the training had helped them improve their sewing skills and learn new techniques. They also added that the training had helped them gain confidence and feel more empowered.
The OBAT Women Empowerment Center is committed to empowering women through education and training. The center believes that when women are given the opportunity to learn and develop their skills, they can make a positive impact on their families and their communities.
The center is planning to expand its training program in the future. It hopes to reach more women and help them achieve their full potential.

“This program has taught me so much about sewing techniques and design. I am confident that I can use my new skills to start my own business. I am so grateful to OBAT for providing this opportunity. This year, in the month of Ramadan, I earned almost 7,000 taka. I can help my family with my earnings. We also got an order from a local madrasa, and earned 4,500 Takas and divided it equally. Now I am very hopeful to earn more money as OBAT provided me with a new industrial sewing machine. I am very grateful to OBAT for giving me such an opportunity.” – Sumona
