Sustainable and participatory development has become an imperative in the prevailing climate scenario. UUI has demonstrated how women-led initiatives can make sustainable impact on poor and marginalized communities, devoid of market access. Impacting crucial SDGs, the model aims to create an ethical market ecosystem for the last-mile prosumer!
Key components
Rural communities:
These are our target segment, who are also our shareholders. They need access to market to solve crucial issues concerning cooking, clean drinking water, lighting and crop-productivity to increase income.
Women Entrepreneurs:
Literate and semi-literate women, trained and hand-held by UUI to serve as decentralized markets in their villages.
- In the supply side, they market and sell products based on clean-technology, support in adoption, after-sales service and doorstep delivery.
- In the demand side, they serve to act as ethical market for agro-produce, ensuring ethical trading practices and fair price for the producer at its doorstep, cutting its logistic and ancillary cost.
