HERA
Helping women achieve financial freedom to prevent trafficking and re-trafficking
  • HER ECONOMIC RIGHTS AND AUTONOMY

    Since 2005, HERA affiliates in the UK, France, and US have worked across nine countries to support women’s entrepreneurship and employment. HERA builds strong, long term partnerships with local NGOs, universities, businesses, and local communities to achieve our mission – to help women achieve financial freedom to prevent trafficking and re-trafficking. HERA provides grants to women micro-entrepreneurs to scale up and employ young women at risk of dangerous migration. HERA also helps its former women grantees forced to migrate and/or become refugees restart their businesses at home or abroad. This year, HERA is again accepting applications from women entrepreneurs in Armenia, Moldova, and Ukraine.

  • THE STORY BEHIND THE YELLOW SCARF

    Crafted by a talented Armenian entrepreneur, supported through our grants program, our unique yellow scarf symbolizes sunshine, positivity, and the hope for a brighter future. It honors the unwavering strength of survivors of trafficking and those at risk of dangerous migration who seize opportunities, overcome challenges, and achieve economic freedom and autonomy.
