Nishat Jahan: A Bold Step Towards Financial Independence

Nishat Jahan, a 36-year-old mother of two, never thought she would leave her village unaccompanied. However, due to her husband’s unemployment and the need to support her family, she took a bold step and learned the skills required for masonry work.

Nishat Jahan’s passion for her work matches that of raising her children and looking after her family.
