MADE51

Østerland is the only guaranteed member of Made51-UNHCR in Denmark. MADE51 is an innovative, market-based model that promotes economic inclusion of refugees in global value chains through their local social enterprises around the world.

As an official MADE51 partner, Østerland works directly with internally displaced women in Afghanistan to develop and produce a unique collection of crafts, which are sold through MADE51. Everything we pay our artisans exceeds the fair living wage set by the World Fair Trade Organization and Nest. Our Herati glassware, painted by women in Afghanistan, creates hope and income for women in a country where their rights are limited.

Together with MADE51 and UNHCR, we are introducing new, authentic products and techniques to the market, while providing refugees with the opportunity to earn an income, strengthen their resilience, and rebuild their self-determination.

You can shop the Herati glasses on our website and on MADE51's website.
