Hand in Hand Partnership
—— A partnership we value highly.
Handelsdagarna has a great platform and reach. Therefore, we want to use it to make a difference. We are proud to collaborate with Hand in Hand Sweden, an organization dedicated to fighting poverty with entrepreneurship.
Hand in Hand’s mission is to unlock the potential of women, young people, and communities by equipping them with the skills, knowledge, and resources needed to build sustainable livelihoods. By providing training in entrepreneurship, vocational skills, and access to microfinance, they enable individuals to start and grow small businesses. This not only improves household incomes but also strengthens local economies and creates ripple effects that benefit entire communities.
Women and young people are at the heart of Hand in Hand’s work. By focusing on these groups, who often face the greatest barriers to economic opportunity, Hand in Hand ensures that their programs deliver lasting and inclusive change. Empowering women with the tools to succeed fosters gender equality and transforms families. Meanwhile, engaging young people helps pave the way for vibrant, forward-thinking communities with a future full of potential.
Together, we can help more individuals break the cycle of poverty and achieve lasting change.
