Source: BBCThis is a lovely story in the news today. Hathay Bunano (meaning handmade), a company started by British/Bangladeshi founders has set up workrooms in some of India's poorest areas. The women were taught how to knit and are paid 25% above the minimum wage to make toys and other items for the West. What a beautiful idea? Great for Hathay Bunano too of course as it's still cheap labour, but nice all the same.
