In March, the month of women, we highlight initiatives that strengthen the female contingent in various roles here at AMAKOS da Amazônia. For those who don't know, the startup is led by South Korean entrepreneur Soon Hee Han.
The company plays a significant role by employing and generating income for women working in the Innovation, Research and Development (R&D) laboratory; at the factory in Manaus; in the cooperatives that promote the standing forest; at distribution points; among other locations. They are essential throughout the company's entire value chain.
Did you know that Amakos supports the Mulheres Resolvidas Project?
An important example of empowerment is AMAKOS’s partnership with Mulheres Resolvidas, an initiative led by Vidinha Cavalcante, one of the 20 community leaders recognized by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).
This project aims to promote food security, income generation, and protection against all forms of violence, including domestic violence, in the Uatumã Sustainable Development Reserve (RDS), in the municipalities of São Sebastião do Uatumã and Itapiranga.
Cooperativism in our DNA
AMAKOS’s partnership with the Mulheres Resolvidas Project goes beyond financial support. Do you know why? The startup maintains a commercial relationship with the Uatumã RDS, purchasing copaiba oil for its Copaíba Hydra skincare line.
Join this movement in support of the Mulheres Resolvidas Project
Committed to social programs, the company decided to allocate 8% of the sales value from this line to the Mulheres Resolvidas Project to fund transportation for 40 project participants. The support seeks to facilitate their meetings and gatherings, considering the long distances within the Uatumã RDS.
In addition to contributing to the economic and social empowerment of women in the Amazon, AMAKOS da Amazônia invites you to discover the Copaíba Hydra line, produced with ingredients from the region. Learn more at: https://amakos.com.br/collections/copaiba
Through partnerships and concrete actions, the startup affirms its commitment to female empowerment and sustainable development in the Amazon, showing that it is possible to combine social responsibility and boost the region's economy.
