Helping Rural Poor Women!
IMPACTS
Valar2010 MBT's interventions aim at promoting community ownership rather than community participation. It strongly believes and practices the dictum that if you empower a man, only he is empowered. But if you empower a woman, her entire family is empowered. Empowering women is no longer a women's issue, it's a societal issue which needs to be addressed with utmost importance. Women empowerment is typically accomplished in two distinct ways: one by providing education to the girl children and two, by providing employment opportunity to woman. Magic would happen if both are combined. Valar2010 MBT Sirkazhi programmes aimed at housewives to promote empowerment in a unique and in a sequential manner. That is, when the woman is employed, she is empowered. When she is employed and empowered, educating the girl children becomes a clear possibility and a happy reality.
