Swat, October 18, 2012: Shabnum, 38, is thankful to USAID for providing her a sustainable source of income through its Embellished Fabric Value Chain Project. “If I had not received the assistance on time, I probably would have married off my 12 years old daughter, Mubeena, who was already taken out of the school and put to work. Today, I make enough money to provide for her and send her back to school where she is continuing with her primary education.” USAID is committed to promote economic empowerment of women and expand avenues for girls to access basic education.
