ग्रामीण महिलाओं को जीवन कौशल सिखाने के लिए उषा ने UNFPA के साथ की साझेदारी

उषा इंटरनेशनल ने ग्रामीण महिलाओं को जीवन कौशल सिखाने के लिए यूनाइटेड नेशन पॉपुलेशन फंड (UNFPA) के साथ साझेदारी की है. इस साझेदारी से महिलाओं को बड़ा फायदा हुआ है. जीवन कौशल मॉड्यूल से महिलाओं को खुद को समझने में बड़ी मदद मिली है. साथ ही सामाजिक और पारिवारिक समस्याओं से निपटने में भी ये सहायक रहा है. ग्राहकों के साथ रिश्तों का कैसे प्रबंधन किया जाए, महिलाएं ये भी सीख चुकी हैं. इस मॉड्यूल से उन्होंने रहन-सहन में बेहतर सफाई भी सीखी हैं, जिससे अब वह बेहतर और सेहतमंद जिंदगियां निर्वाह कर रही हैं.

About The Initiative

About The Initiative

Kushalta Ke Kadam, an initiative by USHA Silai School and NDTV has entered its eighth season. The aim is to empower more women across rural India by teaching them sewing skills and helping them open new doors of opportunities for themselves. The initiative encourages rural women to become financially independent and entrepreneurs by taking up sewing and training others in their respective communities.

 

Since 2011, the USHA Silai School initiative has trained more than 12 lakh rural women through over 33,000 Silai schools, spanning over 20,751 villages across India.

 

The women earn Rs. 4,000 – 5,000 per month on an average, with the highest recorded monthly earning being Rs. 84,000 in a month. This earning works as a catalyst towards building their self-confidence, reducing gender inequities, and raising their stature within their families and in society at large.
