Women Empowerment

Women empowerment Program:

Swadhar's initiatives for women are multifaceted and have followed a need based pattern. It started by providing counselling services to women from poor families facing mental, physical and emotional stress in family life. The experience of family counselling led to development of awareness generation activities for slum-dwelling women and adolescents especially regarding life-skills. It started with school drop-out adolescent girls and went on to include young mothers from the community. What shaped further was an education support program for girls coming from rural families and humble backgrounds. Swadhar started giving financial support to girls continuing vocational or higher studies in city educational institutions. The experience of working closely with slum communities pioneered the set up of Phulora centers which provided life skills training and vocational training to school drop outs. Swadhar thus caters to diverse needs of women in the poor communities living in the slums of Pune with an objective of unleashing their potential and unwinding their talent. The following projects are implemented under this initiative:
