SOCIAL CHANGE THROUGH SKILL DEVELOPMENT

The challenge for women living in rural India is more severe as compared to their urban counterparts. In rural societies, gender discrimination reduces economic opportunities for girls and young women. Deprivation and bias, cultural norms force many girls from poor families into early marriage and childbearing, where they are physically exploited. The burdens of domestic tasks are added. Impoverishment compels several young women to hunt employment within the formal sector, wherever they notice themselves restricted to low-skilled jobs with negligible financial gain potential, long hours and unequal power relations that always cause exploitation. Opportunities for girls in rural areas are restricted, because of restricted mobility and access to education.

WE BELIEVE solution for all these types of problems for rural women is empowering them through skill development and entrepreneurship .

Women have the capability to accelerate the economic growth of the country, if their participation in the workplace is increased.

Leadership & Teamwork

Leadership and Teamwork are the two sides of the same coin and the symbiotic relationship between these two can hardly be overemphasized.

The most competent leader could be staring at the face of failure if the team that is led fails to measure up to the leader’s objectives and teams can be rudderless without effective and wise leadership.

Obviously, leadership and teamwork cannot exist without each other. They have to be balanced, coordinated, and synergized for successful outcomes.
