Committed to empowering single mothers, widows, and vulnerable individuals, Ecobuildher stands as a beacon for women’s empowerment. Our mission revolves around imparting sustainable building construction skills through innovative education methods, breaking down barriers hindering access to opportunities for deserving women.
