AVAL
We are a social enterprise run by women, which has come
to life with the support of Auroville Village Action Group
(AVAG).
Our women, from different villages and social backgrounds,
have been trained in advanced tailoring and crochet design.
Working with contemporary designers from all over the
world, AVAL follows the principles of ethical fashion. Each
product is crafted with care and the profits earned thus support
development initiatives for women in the Auroville bioregion
and provide a meaningful and sustainable livelihood.
The fabric we use is consciously chosen to reflect the rich
cultural tradition of India, particularly South India.

Auroville Village Action Group (AVAG), founded in 1983, is a unit
under the Auroville Village Action Trust (AVAT) and functions as a part
of the Auroville Foundation. It acts as an outreach wing for Auroville in
its bio-region working with the rural communities in Vanur Block, Tamil
Nadu. It is a pioneering social experiment that aims to realize human
unity and build a better future for all.
AVAG has refined a unique and multifaceted community
development program, executed through a structure of Self Help
Groups (SHGs) and Federations with about 5000 women and 600
men, with an emphasis on financial inclusion, gender and caste
equity, community service, social enterprise development and
education.
All of AVAG’s activities are designed to empower the rural
communities to organize themselves for their own personal and
communal empowerment.
AVAL is a testimony to the relationship between AVAG and the
women based on trust and cooperation. The products are a result of
undying mutual exchange of motivation and expertise between the
AVAG staff and the women they work with. They showcase the power
of perseverance in the face of challenges such as lack of skill and
structure.
