Moné Women: Weaving a Future, Transforming Lives

We empower women who are heads of households through entrepreneurship, personal development, and sisterhood.

What is Mujer Moné?

This program empowers female heads of household to become entrepreneurs, build their self-esteem, and generate income through handcrafted textiles and personal development. We believe in their talent and support them as they build a dignified future for themselves and their families.

Dignity

Every woman deserves to be seen, heard, and valued for who she is.

Autonomy

We promote financial independence and informed decision-making.

Sisterhood

We build support networks among women who support one another and grow together.

Empowerment

We promote skill development so that every woman can discover her potential.

Why is it necessary?

In Colombia, 40% of households are headed by women, and most do so without the support of a partner. Many face barriers to finding formal employment, caring for their children, and making ends meet.

In neighborhoods such as Altos de Normandía (Cali), the situation is even more critical:

  • Unemployment among women stands at 18.7%.
  • Of the 76% women who earn an income, they do so in the informal sector.

 

Mujer Moné was created in response to this reality, offering real opportunities for entrepreneurship, personal development, and economic independence.
