Our methodology

Our methodology is based on a model developed by the Tu Luz Association, technically and academically validated. This approach is called i4DHARMA Through this methodology, entrepreneurs go through a structured process that includes academic training, validation and certification of their MVP or Business Case.

i4DHARMA

Four impact axes for conscious businesses that generate real impact:

Economic Impact

Cultural Impact

Crafts, traditions and intangible heritage preserved.

Culture the difference that makes us unique

The cultural axis is the differentiating and essential element of i4DHARMA. We've identified that many women-led businesses around the world preserve crafts, cultures and stories. That's why we work from the concept of "the story behind the story" generating positive impact by making that value visible.

Our backing

The Tu Luz Association is responsible for the design, ideation and development of all programme content. Aware of the importance of delivering quality training, we partner with Roots Consulting, which validates the technical side of the programme, and with the National Technological University of Argentina, responsible for academic validation. Upon completion, entrepreneurs receive a triple-backed certification, committed to their professional development and the real impact of their project.
