Le besoin : quel problème tentez-vous de résoudre ?

Among around 25 million semi-educated or educated women in Bangladesh, almost 22 million are underemployed or unemployed mainly because due to social and religious conservatism most of the women are not allowed to engage in outdoor income generating activities. Ironically, even after receiving 10-16 years of education most of the women pass time doing nothing being confined in the four walls of their home. They feel the need of earning money and supplement their family income; but few can involve in outdoor income generating activities.

La solution: quelle solution proposez-vous ? Soyez précis !

We provide women with a 2 week intensive training on internet based outsourcing jobs. At the end of the training we give each of them a laptop and internet connection for FREE. They earn money working online at their home and pay us back the price of laptop in installments within a year from the money they earn. So, we provide them with training, resources and income generating opportunity which is the best suit given their current constraints. We provide training in groups of 15/20 and the members of each group are self-selected.

Le système : décrivez un exemple spécifique montrant de quelle façon votre initiative fonctionne ; indiquez vos principales activités.

Khaleda,28, housewife, a mother of 2 kids, completed her secondary school 10 years ago. She was a brilliant student but was forced to drop out from college after her marriage. As she was married to a traditional conservative family in Bangladesh, she had little opportunity to involve in any outdoor activity. Years went by and she gave birth to 2 kids. In 2010, her husband died in a car accident. She was in great trouble with her two kids. She used to live in her in laws house and had to depend on the mercy of her in laws. But still despite her financial crisis she wasn't allowed to engage in outdoor income generating activities. Her kids couldn't go to a good school. There are at least a million women in Bangladesh like Khaleda, who despite being badly in need of financial freedom, can not work outside home.

We approached Khaleda, trained her on how to earn money online through jobs such as data entry. We gave her a laptop with internet connection for free in December, 2011. She earned enough money to pay us back the price of laptop in just 5 months. Now, she is working with us as a part-time trainer and also earn money working online at the comfort of her home.

Le marché : qui sont vos collègues et vos concurrents ? Identifiez les autres personnes qui travaillent à répondre au même besoin et indiquez ce qui vous différencie d'elles. Comment ces concurrents pourraient-ils influencer votre réussite ou votre croissance ?

There are a few organization who provide training on online earning but they are for-profit and women are not their target customers. Besides, they do not provide resource support like us.

Création de l'organisation : nous voulons tout savoir sur votre déclic. Expliquez-nous oú et quand les fondateurs se sont rendu compte que cette solution possédait un véritable potentiel pour changer le monde.

Khaleda,28, housewife, a mother of 2 kids lost her husband in a car accident. She was in great financial trouble as she had to support herself and her two school going kids. She wasn't allowed to involve in outdoor income generating activities as her in-laws were very conservative Muslims. She had to rely on the mercy of her in-laws. H M Mirajul Islam, the founder of AASHAR PHOOL, was a good friend of her husband. She approached him to help her out. He provided her with a laptop and taught her on how to earn money online working in home. She was earning handsome money within couple of weeks. So, Mr. Islam, thought he could help other women out in the similar way. And the journey began...
