OUR PURPOSE:
Green Prosperity,
Powered by Women
At azoki, we celebrate migration as a critical force in poverty reduction. Remittances from overseas workers are transforming the potential of entire communities—financing education, underwriting healthcare, & securing the welfare of much-loved families. Migrants are today’s global heroes, but they can still do more. While many go abroad to earn, too few return with a plan to build. azoki aims to change that. Migration can & should enable not only economic growth but also what we describe as green prosperity: a regenerative economy that celebrates caring, sharing, & the well-being of all life forms.
To seize this potential & make it real, azoki is helping migrant women grow their confidence & capabilities as entrepreneurs. We’re helping them design, launch, & grow the small, circular businesses that will lift families, restore ecosystems, & transform communities back home. azoki believes that lower-income countries like the Philippines, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, & Kenya can leapfrog the stumbling blocks of industrial development. We believe with the right type of entrepreneurship, growth can be both clean & healthy. Green prosperity is possible.
We’re working to make it real now.
OUR PILLARS
By reminding migrants of the beauty of their homeland, by celebrating their diaspora stories, & reminding them of the change they are creating, we build pride.
PRIDE
PRODUCTIVITY
We are growing our individual & collective capabilities through financial & business education.
We are turning today’s work & investment into tomorrow’s opportunity through regenerative micro-franchises.

BUILDING
PRIDE
The azoki Heritage book series is a global storytelling initiative that reconnects migrant children with their cultural roots. Around the world, millions of young people grow up far from their parents’ homelands, often without access to the language, rituals, or stories that shaped their families. Each azoki book will be bilingual, beautifully illustrated, & written by authors & artists from the homeland. These books are celebrating everyday life, values, & traditions. To deepen the children’s learning, every story is paired with a culturally trained AI mentor who can answer questions, share oral histories, & help the children explore their heritage in a rich, engaging way.
The very first series we are developing will focus on Palestine. We’re beginning to write & illustrate the books now. If you are Palestinian & would like to be involved in the project, please volunteer by clicking the button below!
ENHANCING
PRODUCTIVITY
At azoki, we believe in education because to be well-educated is to be empowered. By offering our members learning modules focused on savings, skills, voice & vision, we are helping them realise the confidence & capability necessary to become successful business owners & transformative community leaders.
Each course helps migrant women take the practical steps towards becoming productive entrepreneurs. We’re providing a mini-MBA covering money management, operations, marketing, strategy, people management, & ethics. We believe that these learning modules will help our members shape futures with purpose, pride, & clarity.
CREATING
At azoki, we help women turn ideas into enterprises that support both livelihoods & the planet. Our micro-franchises are small, circular businesses. They extend from beekeeping to textile up-cycling. Each franchise blends environmental care with income generation, proving that productivity & regeneration can grow hand in hand.

WHAT MAKES AZOKI DIFFERENT?
At azoki, most businesses start small—a woman selling fruit at the market, or stitching clothes at home. But we don’t expect her to do it all alone. That’s why azoki micro-franchises are designed as networks that are supported by shared tools, training, & community.
Our model is:
Simple & sustainable — low-waste, low-cost, & rooted in local culture
Collective — shared souring, branding, mentorship, & savings tools
Flexible — built to fit caregiving, migration & life’s unpredictability
Regenerative — aiming not just to reduce harm, but to restore & uplift
The azoki living futures incubator is about building the entrepreneurs & the businesses that nurture confident teams, strong families, & engaged, supportive communities.
