  • Sudarshanti Manike's 17-year-old daughter and her mother, Prenawathi, look on as she sews bags for the Self Employment Education & Welfare Association (SEWA), in her home near Kandy, Sri Lanka.<br />
<br />
Manike, an independent seamstress, is a former garment factory worker who is happy because she can earn money for her children's education while being free to set her own hours and her own pace. She has been sewing bags for SEWA for three months, and as per the program dictates, she is paid per completed bag.<br />
