Empowering Women Workers Through Innovative Daycare Solutions

Social entrepreneur Suraiya Haque, the founder of Phulki, has revolutionized workplace daycare for female garment workers in Dhaka, Bangladesh. In a region where the majority of garment industry workers are women, Suraiya’s innovative model of community-based and factory-based daycare centers is improving the lives of working mothers, providing early childhood development support, nutrition education, and reproductive health awareness. Her cost-sharing approach involving both factories and workers is not only creating financial sustainability but also influencing policy changes and systemic improvements in worker welfare.
