Rosemary Frank
Afribeads

Rosemary Frank runs a successful fair trade enterprise called AfriBeads, supporting artisans in Uganda. She coordinates the NSW Fair Trade Network Group that provides networking events and promotes fair trade in the NSW community.
Rosemary's background in Haemotology and later teaching has helped her immensely in developing an awareness of social justice. During a trip overseas to Uganda she was introduced to the Kind Mother's Project and decided she wanted to create something that would empower African women. AfriBeads helps these women to be self-sufficient by providing a market in Australia for the products they make.

Ethica

ethica supports several women’s groups to earn a fair income through their craft, by providing regular skills development and livelihoods

Women in Peru, particularly those in remote and rural communities, continue to be disadvantaged in gaining access to education and employment. Through our training, the women learn values such as solidarity, respect, trust as well as understanding and achieving their rights, and developing a strong work ethic.
