EMPOWERMENT
Nippon Nisa is a flagship Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiative by Nippon Paint Pakistan, dedicated to empowering women by equipping them with professional painting skills and creating sustainable livelihood opportunities. The program is implemented in collaboration with The Hunar Foundation, which provides mobilization and training facilities, and SheMatters, which supports participant placement and network building.
A Since its launch, Nippon Nisa has successfully completed three training batches, empowering more than 50 women with professionally aligned painting skills. New batches are also being conducted simultaneously to expand the program’s reach and impact.Following their certification, graduates are connected with employment opportunities through Nippon Paint Pakistan and its partner network. Today, trained Nippon Nisa painters are actively working on multiple residential and commercial projects across Pakistan and have successfully completed numerous home painting assignments, enabling them to earn a stable income and build independent careers.
Beyond employment, Nippon Nisa aims to create a long-term ecosystem of women professionals in the painting industry. As graduates gain experience, they are encouraged to become mentors, trainers, and ambassadors who inspire and support more women to join the profession, creating a lasting cycle of empowerment.
Through Nippon Nisa, Nippon Paint Pakistan continues its commitment to breaking barriers, promoting gender inclusion, and creating meaningful economic opportunities for women, helping them build brighter, more secure futures.
