Be Involved

The Women's Alliance of Ladakh is in the process of building a new training centre in Leh. This centre will be used for training in Ama-les traditional skills and income generation activities.

WAL is also seeking funding to purchase a vehicle for travelling and transportation as this is highly expensive for us.

Donate to help continue our work in person at the WAL centre or to the following account:
