Women Empowerment Programs

Gender equality remains a burning issue even when women play equally important roles in driving the rural economy in India. Women have always been facing the inequitable distribution of domestic chores besides other responsibilities such as fetching water, collecting firewood, working in farms, cooking at homes of others, and cleaning toilets etc. This is severely impacting physical security, opportunities for adult education , overall productivity, income generation capacity, nutritional status, and overall health and well being

We at Aalekh Foundation are driving initiatives to reduce these drudegries of women and provide them with access to economic opportunities and enable their equivalent participation in decision making , so that they become equal partners in the development process of the future of India.
