In March of 2007 the three of us, Bryan Simis, Bjoern Herrmann and Jochen Wolf met Bibi Russell in Cologne at the “11th World Business Dialogue” congress. Bibi Russell talked about her development aid program she conducts in Bangladesh with her own project called “Fashion For Development”. A very successful program that can stand as an example of how successful developmental aid can be when it has the right appendages.
Bibi Russell, who believes devoutly in the handcraft of her fellow landsmen, helps the poor by giving them occupation in the textile business and by that, a chance to overcome poverty by themselves, in dignity.
In our conversations we discovered mutual cogitations and ideas and finally found ourselves inspired to start a project of our own.
