Ronald van het Hof, Managing Director of Women on Wings India: “A good mutual understanding and a strong motivation by our Indian business partners to grow in business and sustainable work for women is really paying off. We’ve also seen a significant increase in the number of Indian organizations interested in working with us from other sectors than handicraft, especially from the agri-sector”.
