About Us

Moving Ahead. Re-writing History.

Udayonmukha Handicrafts is a social impact organisation committed to eliminating bonded labour by creating sustainable livelihoods for survivors primarily women from vulnerable and exploited communities.

We believe that freedom is not charity; it is a right. By enabling dignified, fairly paid work through ethical handicraft production, we support survivors of bonded labour in rebuilding their lives with confidence, independence, and pride.

All products created under Udayonmukha Handicrafts are 100% bonded labour free, ethically made, and rooted in transparency, skill, and human dignity.

The Problem we Address

Bonded labour continues to exist across many sectors, including:

  • Agriculture & sugarcane farms

  • Brick kilns & construction sites

  • Jaggery factories & rock quarries

  • Domestic servitude

  • Garment, bag, footwear & plastic recycling units

  • Small manufacturing units and informal labour sectors

Survivors often face:

  • Generational debt traps

  • Lack of education and employable skills

  • Social exclusion and stigma

  • Economic dependence and exploitation

Udayonmukha Handicrafts exist to break this cycle permanently.

Commitment To Quality

Our Vision

A world free from bonded labour, where every individual lives and works with dignity, freedom, and opportunity.

Our Mission

To empower survivors of bonded labour by:

    • Creating sustainable, dignified livelihoods

    • Building ethical, survivor-run handicraft enterprises

    • Promoting bonded labour free production and consumption

    • Raising awareness about modern slavery through action, not sympathy

Our Values

  • Freedom with Dignity – Liberation must come with livelihood and respect

  • Ethical Responsibility – People before profit, always

  • Transparency – Honest production, honest impact

  • Empowerment, Not Dependency – Skills over handouts

  • Shared Freedom – Freedom grows when shared with others

Each product carries a story not of suffering, but of resilience, strength, and new beginnings.

Each product is a tribute to freedom, a freedom we exercise everyday through resilience, strength and the courage to face new beginnings.

  • Doing collections, doing fashion is like a non-stop dialogue. I never like to think that I design for a particular person.

Our Impact Promise

When you support Udayonmukha Handicrafts, you support:

  • Freedom from exploitation

  • Fair employment for survivors

  • Ethical production systems

  • A bonded labour–free future

Our Belief

Every ethical purchase is a step toward ending bonded labour.

Every ethical purchase is a step toward ending bonded labour, freeing ourselves and those who are vulnerable.
