Women in rural India continue to encounter numerous obstacles stemming from absence to literacy, climate change and gender inequality. They face numerous hurdles in pursuing any income opportunity and end up doing an odd labour job. We need a holistic program that works on giving her confidence, training her in niche skills that can be used to earn an income through dignity and provide market linkages if she decides to pursue product based livelihoods.
Sustainable livelihoods transcend conventional approaches to poverty eradication, embodying an integrated and cohesive strategy. The Raah Foundation is committed to empowering impoverished individuals to earn a living in a way that is economically, ecologically, and socially sustainable.
The livelihoods program starts by approaching women in communities and introducing them to opportunities for life-changing transformations. Through extensive training, the program enhances their skills and confidence, enabling women to effectively manage small businesses, earn livelihoods and contribute to family incomes.
