At SETU, the idea has always been simple: to create a space where women can learn, earn, and slowly build a life of their own. A space where artisans are supported, and children are given the care and learning they deserve.

Because when the right opportunities are given, everything begins to change: confidence, income, and the way someone sees their own future.

If this is something you believe in, we’re always open to support, donations, and collaborations with like-minded people.

From learning how to stitch… to building a future with it.🧡

Our 2-month free vocational stitching training came to an end, with women showing up every day, learning, growing, and building confidence along the way.

Today, many of them leave with skills, confidence, and real income opportunities.
And we’re so proud to share that 10 women are already placed in jobs, taking their first steps towards financial independence.

This is what skill development truly means for us. Not just a class, but a chance to stand on your own, to earn, and to dream a little bigger.

On the occasion of International Women’s Day, SETU organized a hands-on Skill Upgradation Workshop for 25 women artisans in Jaipur’s traditional lac craft.

These women are traditionally engaged in making lac bangles. The training focused on innovative techniques of embedding zirconia and decorative stones, enhancing both the beauty and market value of their products.

The workshop also introduced artisans to new and modern functional products using lac, encouraging creativity and product diversification.

With expert trainers, kilns, tools, and raw materials provided, the session gave artisans the opportunity to practice, experiment, and learn new techniques in a supportive environment.
Because when women artisans gain new skills, they don’t just improve their craft, they strengthen their livelihoods and build brighter futures.

Meet Nirmala and watch how determination looks in real life!

She does not ask for sympathy.
She asks for opportunity.

And when she gets it,
she turns it into strength for her family
and hope for the next generation.

We’re happy to share that our founder, Rashmi Dhariwal, will be moderating a panel at the Women’s International Summit on Entrepreneurship (WISE 2026), hosted by

The session, β€œHeritage, Handicrafts & Tourism – Local Roots, Global Impact,” will explore how India’s traditional sectors can build stronger global presence, sustainable enterprises, and real opportunities for women.

At SETU, we believe heritage must move beyond preservation and translate into income, ownership, and long-term impact for artisan communities across the country.

Looking forward to a meaningful conversation

At SETU, stitching is not just a skill… it’s the start of a new future.

SETU is providing a two-month free vocational stitching training, where under privileged women come every day to learn new skills and build confidence. Stitching is more than learning to sew. It creates opportunities to earn from home, start a small business, or find employment. Women from different backgrounds walk in with hope, and walk out with skills, income potential, and renewed confidence.

After training, these women gain more than a skill. They gain identity, livelihood, and the confidence to stand on their own.
With SETU, dreams are not just imagined…they are achieved.

From homebound& desolate to becoming self-reliant, Premlata’s journey is a powerful tale of courage and transformation!

Once hesitant, Premlata,today proudly handles her finances, manages her home, and stands as a role model for her family. Her first step was believing in herself. Now, she supports her children, her household, and most importantly, her own dreams.

Her journey is the reason SETU exists – to empower women like Premlata to break free, build stability, and inspire others with their strength.

Some stories are carved, not written.
From tracing the first motif to shaping the block, sanding it down, and testing every print, this is what craft looks like when it’s built with patience, skill, and pride.

Every piece you see here carries hours of quiet work, steady hands, and a livelihood that grows stronger with every order. Support artisan-made. Wear/use something that actually has a story. 🌿
Watch full video to see how beautiful it looks.

Spring-Summer 2026 is defined by β€œRedirection”; a year when old ideas will be challenged and urgent change will reshape how we treat society, design industries, and work with the environment.

The SS26 palette reflects this shift through a mix of urgent brights, earthy naturals, and calming tinted tones, inspired by hyper-textured, waxy organic materials. These colours balance joyful intensity with restorative, nocturnal softness, supporting themes of sustainability, emotional wellbeing, and expressive functionality across fashion, craft, beauty, and lifestyle design.

Most people don’t realise this: the Government of India can fund women-led businesses: sometimes up to crores.
From collateral-free Mudra loans to larger support under Stand-Up India, strong schemes already exist. Not venture capital. Not risky borrowing. But real support meant for women entrepreneurs.

At SETU, we walk alongside the women we work with: helping them build skills, confidence, and awareness of opportunities like these. Watching them grow into capable, self-assured professionals has been deeply inspiring. We’re proud of how far they’ve come, and grateful to be part of their journey forward.
