About CCWE Fashion Week

Ceylon Chamber of Women Entrepreneurs (CCWE) is a national consortium representing women’s chambers, grassroots networks, and community-based organizations across all nine provinces of Sri Lanka. We are also the only chamber in Sri Lanka with formal South Asian representation through the South Asian Women’s Development Forum (SAWDF). Over the years, CCWE has actively supported women entrepreneurs and marginalized communities by enabling access to skills development, market opportunities, financial inclusion, and sustainable livelihoods.
Through partnerships with government agencies, private sector actors, international organizations, and civil society, CCWE leverages resources and opportunities to amplify women’s voices and drive systemic change. Its nationwide reach positions it to lead initiatives like a Fashion Week that celebrates Sri Lankan culture, showcases sustainable textiles and innovative designs, and connects participants with domestic and international buyers and investors. By combining culture, commerce, and capacity-building, CCWE’s Fashion Week would advance women’s economic empowerment, promote sustainable development, and foster international collaboration in the creative economy.
