Encouraging greater participation of women in community leadership and decision-making.
Mahila Sahbhagita works to increase women's participation in community life, leadership, and decision-making. The vertical forms and mentors women's self-help groups, encourages women to take on organisational and local leadership roles, and creates forums where women can voice concerns affecting their households and neighbourhoods. Training sessions build confidence in public speaking, financial literacy, and civic processes, helping participants engage more fully in matters that affect them. By steadily widening the circle of women involved in planning and running community initiatives, the programme works toward a more balanced and representative form of local leadership.
