Gusti Leder is supporting the Azad Foundation by donating €500 – and we want your support to try and double this amount. Every donation helps women to live autonomous lives, seize new opportunities, and actively shape their future. Together, we can create a world in which equality is not just a goal, but a reality.
The Azad Foundation is committed to empowering women from disadvantaged backgrounds in India and promoting their self-determination. Every woman has the right to receive an education, develop her skills, and take her place in society on her own terms.
Targeted training, mentoring, and educational opportunities empower women to realise their dreams and actively shape their future.
Women on Wheels helps women obtain their driving licence. This means that they have more freedom and independence while providing them with new career opportunities.
More than 6,000 women have already taken part in the program.
Feminist Leadership provides women from marginalised communities with knowledge about gender equality, dealing with gender-based violence as well as communication and leadership skills that enable them to pass on their knowledge to others and support their community.
Azad Kishori specifically focuses on girls and young women, using education to show them how to recognise and develop their full potential.
The program also targets parents, encouraging them to support their daughters more.
Men for Gender Justice encourages men and boys to question patriarchal role models, address violence and discrimination, and share care work more fairly.
Through groups, workshops, and campaigns, they become allies who initiate change in their families and communities.
Our goal at Gusti Leder is creating well-crafted, timeless products in a responsible way.
We work directly with our producers in India and Italy (without any middlemen) to ensure transparent processes, fair conditions, and the highest quality craftsmanship. Leather goods that stand the test of time – both in terms of value and style.
