We work with NGOs and communities to produce and market products. These start with skill development efforts, where we train local teams. Then, we help them set up production centers and start producing. Major support from Paadhai is in creating initial business and in sustaining this, till the centers can operate on their own.

A few skill development and production center projects worth mentioning are:

• WGST – Tailoring efforts – Production of Masks, shopping bags & Women’s wear (Past Skill Development Initiatives (2007–2024)
• DSS projects – Customized Craft work for Europe
• Anawim production – Soap making, Palm Leaf products , Spirolina
• Revised description: Paadhai had supported skill development initiatives, including tailoring and production activities, during its collaboration period with WGST. These references are historical and do not indicate ongoing involvement.
