Co-create one million jobs for women in rural India
Indian social enterprises and government institutions receive our tailor-made pro bono consulting so they can scale and employ more women.
Manifesto
Meaningful work that brings confidence and self-respect. The opportunity to support yourself and your family. A better and more sustainable future.
These are things we all want.
Yet millions of women in rural India are trapped in a structure of poverty and inequality. And, all too often, they are denied opportunities although they have so much to offer.
When they are eager to demonstrate their strength and resilience.
And show the world what they can do.
How can we make this happen?
Through the economic empowerment of women in rural India.
We support Indian social enterprises and government institutions in their mission to generate income for women. These organizations often need specific business experience to realize growth, and create more work for women.
Women on Wings provides tailor-made pro bono business consultancy and mentoring to these organizations. Through targeted, on-the-ground advice delivered by a professional network of Indian and Dutch experts.
We have been doing this for many years now.
To date, we have co-created over 395,000 jobs for women in rural India.
Our goal is to transform the lives of countless more women.
So that we unleash the full potential of all women in rural India

Working with Women of Wings has been nothing short of a miracle. We have become a positive, healthy and well-rounded business. We are growing towards scaling with our ‘why’ fixed as a foundation, a pricing strategy, cleaned up finance, and a communications action plan. Jobs for women have increased by 10%.

We consult with our social enterprise and government institution partners throughout India – from the northern mountains in Tripuradevi to Nagapattinam in the south and from Bhuj to Imphal.
