Emerge Global is a Boston-based non-profit that enables Sri Lankan girls, age 10-18, who have survived sexual violence and exploitation to become jewelry designers through a comprehensive curriculum that emphasizes personal discovery, leadership, and business knowledge, while simultaneously generating savings for their futures. Design and entrepreneurship are combined as a mechanism to develop confidence, teach life skills, and strengthen the community’s capacity to effect change. We hope to one day to be able to work with young women and girls around the world who have survived abuse to rediscover and celebrate their personal beauty, develop their self-sufficiency, and become leaders within their own communities.
