ABOUT BUTTONUP
Buttonup is building a model for inclusive growth where local crafts become statements of change.
Through vocational training, design innovation, and community collaboration, we empower women and youth in Egypt—especially those initially excluded from the labor market—to become skilled artisans, entrepreneurs, and changemakers.
Our model is designed to be replicable across different underserved areas, offering pathways to economic independence while preserving cultural heritage and promoting sustainable practices.
