Pakistan Day


I  think we should invite Saiba Gul who is an engineer turned entrepreneur and is passionate about women empowerment, especially in South Asia. She was born and brought up in Lahore and is an alumna of MIT.  She had worked on low-cost solar lighting for post-Tsunami refugees.
   

At present, she is associated with ‘Popinjay’ Brand  handmade, quality  fashion accessories by actively engaging skilled artisans, and  embroiderers, especially women.
             The women are given practical training and  very good wages so that they could be self-reliant and work with dignity which eventually leads to uplifting the social status of  such artisan women.
